Donald Trump's attempt to delay his hush money trial has been denied by a New York appeals court, marking his third consecutive loss in last-minute delay efforts.
Trump's lawyers assert that the trial judge's rulings have adversely affected his defense, seeking delays to challenge the judge's decisions and ensure a fair process.
The appeal hearing highlighted the significance of the trial for Trump, emphasizing its historic nature and the importance of getting the proceedings right, as it is the first of his criminal indictments to go to trial.
Trump's legal team raised objections against Judge Merchan's decisions, claiming he overstepped his authority by denying a postponement until the Supreme Court rules on an immunity claim in another case, suggesting potential exclusion of evidence if the ruling favors Trump.
