Trump Seeks to Delay New York Fraud Trial

“Donald Trump has asked a New York judge to delay a scheduled Oct. 2 trial in state Attorney General Letitia James’ civil fraud lawsuit against the former U.S. president and his family business,” Reuters reports.

“In a Tuesday night filing, Trump said the trial should be ‘briefly’ delayed until three weeks after the judge rules on both sides’ requests for summary judgments, which seek victory on various legal issues without the need for a trial.”
