On Tuesday the New York Appeals Court denied Donald Trump’s effort to delay his hush money criminal trial while he argues against a gag order the judge overseeing the case imposed.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Judge Juan Merchan\u2019s gag order bars Trump from attacking witnesses, prosecutors, court staff, and the judge\u2019s family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hill <\/a>has more: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During an emergency hearing Tuesday before Justice Cynthia Kern, Trump\u2019s lawyers argued that banning public statements about those individuals is an unconstitutional prior restraint on his right to free speech while running for president and mounting his defense. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThe First Amendment harms arising from this gag order right now are irreparable,\u201d said Trump lawyer Emil Bove, according to the Associated Press. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

State prosecutors countered that Trump\u2019s remarks threaten the \u201cpublic interest in protecting the integrity of the trial.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThis is not political debate. These are insults,\u201d Steven Wu, appellate chief for the Manhattan district attorney\u2019s office, said of Trump\u2019s statements, according to the AP.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Trump is scheduled to head to trial in his New York criminal case on April 15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The former president faces 34 charges linked to hush money payments made by his ex-fixer to porn actress Stormy Daniels to cover up an alleged affair ahead of the 2016 election. He has pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Monday, a judge in New York denied a separate request for a delay in his hush money trial. Trump\u2019s attorneys argued for the trial to be relocated from Manhattan and postponed as they pursue the matter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
