Judge rejects Trump’s bid to delay hush money trial
A judge has rejected Donald Trump’s bid to delay his upcoming hush money criminal trial. Lawyers for the former president asked for a delay of the hush money trial until the Supreme Court rules in Trump’s immunity claim in his Washington, D.C., election interference case is resolved. But the judge said no. The trial is scheduled to begin April 15th. Meanwhile, federal prosecutors are scolding the judge presiding over Trump’s classified documents case in Florida. They’re unhappy with the slow pace and are questioning the judge’s approach, arguing that her jury instructions are based on a “fundamentally flawed legal premise.”
