US EditionJudge denies Trump bid to delay New York fraud trial
- A Manhattan judge has denied former President Donald Trump's request to delay his civil trial on business fraud allegations, calling his arguments "completely without merit." The trial is set to begin on October 2nd and is the first of many legal proceedings Trump faces.
- The civil trial is related to a lawsuit filed by New York Attorney General Letitia James, alleging that Trump and his children engaged in an illegal scheme that fraudulently overvalued assets, resulting in $250 million. James seeks to recover the funds and prevent Trump and his children from holding positions in New York companies.
- Trump's lawyers attempted to delay the trial until after a hearing on summary judgment motions, but the judge rejected their request and maintained the trial date. The trial precedes a series of criminal trials that Trump faces for actions related to the 2020 election, hush money payments, and mishandling classified documents.
