Former President Donald Trump faces a key week ahead, and yet again the drama won’t be on the campaign trail but in the courtroom as the GOP front-runner’s children prepare to testify before a judge.
Ivanka Trump was initially listed as a co-defendant, but a New York appeals court dismissed that status, finding that the claims against her were too old.
Chutkan had imposed a narrow gag order on Trump earlier this month, barring him from making public statements targeting prosecutors, court staff and potential witnesses.
But she paused the gag order to allow Trump’s defense team time to argue why his speech should not be restricted.
The ACLU has sided with Trump, arguing that the gag order is a violation of First Amendment free speech protections.
