Donald Trump's criminal trial will begin on April 15, a New York judge ruled on Monday, shooting down the former president's efforts to delay it.

The former president’s criminal hush-money in New York trial will begin on April 15, Judge Juan Merchan ruled on Monday

Donald Trump‘s first criminal trial will begin on April 15.

Judge Juan Merchan ruled on Monday that the former president’s criminal hush-money trial will kick off next month. The ruling comes after Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg agreed to delay the initial start date of March 25 so that his office could review new records from the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

Merchan rejected Trump’s latest push to delay the trial even further, while excoriating his team for making bogus allegations of misconduct against Bragg. “You are literally accusing the Manhattan DA’s office and the people assigned to this case of prosecutorial misconduct and trying to make me complicit in it,” the judge said.
