New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan denied two motions from former President Donald Trump’s defense attorneys on March 26. They had requested permission to file new motions and for case documents and correspondence to be made public.
In one order, Justice Merchan pointed out that the filing of new motions is permitted, but only after a one-page pre-motion is submitted to the court and approved first. In the other, he pointed to a previous protective order he entered which requires some personal information in the case files to be redacted.
