An official under Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg responded to a letter from a House Republican panel, signaling that the district attorney is open to testifying in the wake of former President Donald Trump’s felony conviction late last month.

Mr. Bragg’s general counsel, Leslie Dubeck, said in a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio.), that the district attorney currently has “scheduling conflicts” but might testify in front of the committee in the future under certain conditions.
