Donald Trump is seeking to delay his March 25 hush money trial in New York until the Supreme Court rules on presidential immunity claims in another criminal case. His lawyers asked the judge to adjourn the trial indefinitely until the high court decides on immunity in Trump's Washington D.C. election interference case. Lawyers argue some evidence in the hush money case overlaps with his time in the White House. The hush money case alleges that Trump manipulated his company's records to conceal payments made to his lawyer, Michael Cohen, for silencing negative stories, including paying Stormy Daniels to prevent disclosure of a past sexual encounter.
