A New York judge on Thursday denied former President Donald Trump’s request to sanction prosecutors over a last-minute evidence dump in a case charging him with 34 counts of falsifying business records.

President Trump’s attorneys have previously filed a motion for discovery sanctions and adjournment of trial after the prosecutors handed over 100,000 pages of documents just weeks before the trial.
