"Considering the constitutional and statutory rights at issue an interim stay is granted," wrote Associate Justice David Friedman, of New York state's intermediate appeals court.
He issued the stay in response to a request filed by Trump's legal team earlier this week that argued the gag order violated his First-Amendment — as well as the state's — freedom-of-speech rights.

The Warners ran three main businesses from their farm, and Dee Warner had four adult children from her first marriage — all living on their own.
