NextImg:BREAKING: Trump loses appeal to delay New York trial

Former President Trump has just lost a motion in the New York Appellate Division to delay the “hush money” trial being brought against him by hack District Attorney Alvin Brag.

The trial is set to begin later this month.

Here’s more via Fox News:

A New York Appeals Court rejected former President Trump’s motion to delay his trial on charges stemming from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s hush-money payments investigation.

The former president and 2024 presumptive Republican presidential nominee sought to delay the trial, which is set to begin with jury selection on April 15. He also sought to change the venue for the trial—asking that it be removed from New York.

Trump’s application to the New York Appellate Division 1st Department said that while jury selection is set to begin next week, “polling and quantitative analysis of media coverage shows that a fair and impartial jury cannot be selected right now based on prejudicial pretrial publicity.”

But the judge on Monday evening denied Trump’s motion to delay the trial.

“Defendant’s application for a stay of trial…pending the determination of defendant’s motion for change of venue, is denied,” Hon. Lizbeth Gonzalez decided Monday.

Bragg, last April, charged Trump with 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree. The charges are related to alleged hush-money payments made during the 2016 presidential campaign.

Bragg alleged that Trump “repeatedly and fraudulently falsified New York business records to conceal criminal conduct that hid damaging information from the voting public during the 2016 presidential election.”

Trump pleaded not guilty to all counts.
