Lawyers for former President Trump submitted a motion on Monday to postpone the trial coming from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s charges relating to hush money payments until the Supreme Court rules on presidential immunity.
The trial in New York City is scheduled to begin on March 25 with jury selection, but the attorneys for the former president and GOP likely nominee for 2024 have requested that the trial be postponed.
“The Court should adjourn the trial pending Supreme Court review of the scope of the presidential immunity doctrine in Trump v. United States, which is scheduled to be argued before the Supreme Court on April 25, 2024,” the motion states.
Trump’s lawyers request that the Manhattan District Attorney’s trial be postponed until the Supreme Court rules on presidential immunity.
