Trump's Fraud Trial Proceeds Despite Attempts to Delay or Provoke Judge

A New York appeals court has denied former President Donald Trump's request to stay his ongoing civil business fraud trial, but has temporarily halted a judge's order to cancel the business certificates of Trump's companies in the state. The trial, brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, is dealing with a $250 million lawsuit against Trump, the Trump Organization, his adult sons, and top company executives. The court ruling allows the trial to continue while suspending the cancellation of business certificates pending the outcome of Trump's appeal.
