NEW YORK — Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg wants to pause the publication of a tell-all book about his office’s investigation into Donald Trump — to make sure nothing confidential is spilled on its pages.
Bragg’s office claims the author, Mark Pomerantz — a veteran white-collar lawyer who blamed the DA when he quit the team investigating the ex-president — shirked a legal obligation to get permission to pen “People vs. Donald Trump.”
“Mr. Pomerantz has neither sought nor received approval to make disclosures relating to ongoing matters at the DA’s Office, and this Office has not reviewed any drafts or excerpts of his manuscript,” the DA’s lawyer Leslie Dubeck wrote Wednesday to attorneys for publisher Simon & Schuster, Paramount and Pomerantz.
