Judge delays Trump’s hush-money criminal trial in New York
A New York judge has delayed Donald Trump’s hush-money criminal trial. Jury selection was to have begun later this month, but the criminal trial is being pushed back until mid-April. The judge ordered the delay after Trump’s lawyers said they needed more time to sift through new evidence. A hearing will take place on March 25th to decide whether prosecutors should face sanctions or the case should be dismissed. The former president’s legal team only recently started receiving more than 100-thousand pages of documents from a previous federal investigation into the Stormy Daniels matter.
