Manhattan D.A. Offers to Delay Trump Hush-Money Trial for Review of Records


Manhattan D.A. offers to postpone Trump hush-money trial for 30 days to allow his lawyers to review new records. The delay comes after federal prosecutors finally handed over documents related to the case. Trump's lawyers had requested a 90-day delay, but the D.A. agreed to 30 days. The trial was originally set for March 25, but now faces potential postponement. The judge will have to approve the delay. This case is seen as a career-making opportunity for the district attorney, and any missteps could jeopardize the trial. If delayed, it would likely benefit Trump, who has a strategy of stalling legal proceedings. The case involves hush-money payments to Stormy Daniels during the 2016 campaign, and Trump's alleged cover-up of the payments. Other criminal cases against Trump are also facing delays.
