Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has taken a firm stance against former President Trump's alleged violations of a gag order imposed by Judge Juan Merchan. Bragg has urged Judge Merchan to consider the possibility of imposing a 30-day jail term on Trump for any future breaches of the order.
The gag order was put in place by Judge Merchan last month in response to what he deemed as 'prior extrajudicial statements' made by Trump. These statements were seen as posing a risk to the administration of justice in the ongoing case.
