Alvin Bragg Files for Delay in Trump’s New York City Trial
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg filed for a delay of up to thirty days in the trial of President Trump over charges related to an alleged hush money payment to stripper Stormy Daniels, aka Stephanie Clifford. Jury selection in the case was scheduled to start on March 25. Bragg charged Trump last April with 34 counts of Falsifying Business Records in the First Degree. Each count has a 4 year maximum sentence.

Bragg said the U.S. Attorney’s Office had just provided about 31,000 pages of documents to the defense and prosecution on Wednesday, saying he would need up to a month review the documents. Bragg blamed Trump for the delay.
