Trump's NY Trial Postponed Due to New Evidence Disclosure

The trial delay allows Trump's legal team to review over 100,000 documents, including data from Michael Cohen's phones.

Judge Juan Merchan postponed Donald Trump's New York trial by 30 days to mid-April after a massive evidence disclosure.
The evidence includes data from Michael Cohen's phones, which Trump's lawyers aim to use to discredit Cohen's potential testimony.
Despite a December order rejecting such requests, Trump's team obtained the documents after a compromise with the SDNY.
Experts express concern that the delay could undermine public interest and potentially derail the trial entirely.
Trump's legal team argues the evidence disclosure promotes justice and the truth-seeking function of the trial.
