A New York state appeals judge on Tuesday denied Donald Trump\u2019s bid to delay his April 15 trial on criminal charges stemming from hush money paid to a porn star while the former U.S. president appeals a gag order in the case.<\/p>\n

Associate Justice Cynthia Kern issued the order following a Tuesday morning hearing at a mid-level appeals court. A full panel of appeals judges will later consider Trump\u2019s underlying challenge to the gag order.
\nThe Republican presidential candidate\u2019s lawyers said at the hearing that Justice Juan Merchan\u2019s order restricting his public comments should be modified to let him respond to public criticism leveled by potential witnesses in the case.
\n\u201cThe First Amendment harms arising from this gag order right now are irreparable,\u201d Trump\u2019s attorney Emil Bove said during the hearing.
\nMerchan imposed the order last month barring him from verbal attacks on potential witnesses, court staff and individual prosecutors after finding Trump made statements in various legal cases that the judge called \u201cthreatening, inflammatory\u201d and \u201cdenigrating.\u201d
\nThe judge expanded the order to cover his relatives and those of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg after Trump disparaged Merchan\u2019s daughter online.
\nThe order does not restrict Trump\u2019s speech about Merchan or Bragg.
\nSteven Wu, a lawyer with Bragg\u2019s office, said at the Appellate Division hearing that the trial should not be delayed since Trump\u2019s lawyers could have made the appeal earlier.
\nHe also said his office had to increase security due to Trump\u2019s statements, and that potential witnesses were reluctant to testify because of Trump\u2019s comments.
\n\u201cThey know what their names in the press may lead to,\u201d Wu said. \u201cThis is a pattern of misconduct that causes predictable, terrifying consequences.\u201d
\nTrump is accused of covering up his former lawyer Michael Cohen\u2019s $130,000 payment to porn star Stormy Daniels in exchange for her silence before the 2016 presidential election about a sexual encounter she said she had with Trump a decade earlier.
\nTrump has pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of falsifying business records and denied any such encounter with Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford.
\nTrump lost on Monday a last-ditch bid to delay the trial while he tries to move the case out of heavily Democratic Manhattan. His lawyers said a survey of Manhattan residents they conducted showed that 61% of respondents thought Trump was guilty and 70% had a negative opinion of him.
\nThe hush money case is one of four criminal indictments Trump faces as he prepares to challenge Democratic President Joe Biden in their Nov. 5 U.S. election rematch.
\nThe others stem from his efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss to Biden and his handling of sensitive government documents after leaving the presidency in 2021. Trump has pleaded not guilty to all charges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
