Trump's hush-money case delayed

A date was scheduled for March 25 to kickoff Donald Trump's first criminal trial, for which arguments are being prepared on charges that the former president falsified business records to hide an alleged hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels during his 2016 campaign. But, after Trump's team requested a delay to review a dump of new evidence that just came in, things are getting pushed down the calendar a bit.

On Thursday, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg suggested a 30-day delay to the trial — considerably less than the 90 days that Trump's team asked for — stating in a motion to the court that "the USAO produced approximately 31,000 pages of additional records and represented that there will be another production of documents by next week."
