NY v Trump: Remaining alleged gag order violations hang in balance as trial resumes
Fox News
The NY v. Trump trial will resume Friday for its 11th day, where the court will hear continued testimony from computer forensic expert Doug Daus.
Judge Juan Merchan held a hearing Thursday morning to consider the remaining alleged gag order violations against Trump. The 45th president was fined $9,000 on Tuesday for violating the order — which bans him from speaking publicly about witnesses and family members of court officials — on nine separate occasions. The district attorney's office argued Trump violated the gag order on 14 separate occasions.
Merchan did not deliver a ruling on the remaining alleged violations Thursday but could issue a decision Friday. In his initial gag order ruling, Merchan warned that Trump could face jail time if there are "continued willful violations" of the order.
Trump said he would appeal the gag order during remarks after the trial adjourned Thursday evening.
