Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office on Friday asked a New York judge to extend former President Donald Trump’s gag order weeks after his criminal trial concluded and as the former president awaits his sentencing date.
Earlier this year, Judge Juan Merchan issued a gag order that prohibits the former president from speaking about witnesses, court staff, and other people involved in the case, although he is free to target the judge and Mr. Bragg. Later, the judge expanded the gag order to include members of his own family and family members of others involved in the case.
