A New York appeals court has rejected Donald Trump's request to lift the gag order imposed in his New York criminal trial. The court ruled that the gag order must remain in effect to protect the integrity of the trial, stating that Justice Merchan properly determined that Trump's public statements posed a significant threat to the testimony of witnesses and potential witnesses. Trump has already been found in violation of the gag order 10 times. The court also noted that Justice Merchan properly weighed Trump's First Amendment rights against the court's commitment to ensuring the fair administration of justice in criminal cases.
