Appeals Judge Denies Trump’s Request to Delay Start of Hush Money Trial

Trump's attorneys wanted to challenge his gag order

New York Associate Justice Cynthia Kern denied the application for an interim stay just minutes after hearing arguments on the matter Tuesday.

A full appeals court panel will still consider Trump’s petition, though it will not delay the start of the trial.
