"Trump's Request to Delay Stormy Daniels Trial Denied by Appeals Judge"

Former President Donald Trump's request to delay his April 15 trial on criminal charges related to hush money paid to a porn star was denied by an appeals court, as his lawyers sought to challenge a gag order in the case. The gag order restricts Trump from making public comments about potential witnesses and court staff. Trump's lawyers argued that the order should be modified to allow him to respond to public criticism, but the request was denied. The trial is set to proceed as Trump faces charges of falsifying business records to cover up a payment to Stormy Daniels before the 2016 election.
