NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump is now 0 for 3 in last-minute attempts to get a New York appeals court to delay his looming hush money criminal trial.
It’s a historic, unprecedented proceeding,” Bove said, adding: “This can only be done once and it must be done right.”.
Trump’s hush-money case is the first of his four criminal indictments slated to go to trial and would be the first criminal trial ever of a former president.
Trump’s lawyers argue some evidence in the hush-money case could be excluded if the Supreme Court rules in his favor.
“The court, the people, witnesses have made extraordinary efforts to make sure this trial can take place on Monday.”.
One appeals court judge Monday rejected his bid to delay the trial while he seeks to move it out of Manhattan.
Trump’s lawyers also took issue with a protocol Merchan put in place last month to manage a flood of last-minute court filings. »
