Protective Order Hearing Scheduled by Judge for Friday
Former President Donald Trump’s hearing on protective order motions has been scheduled for Friday by U.S. District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan. The hearing is set for 10 a.m. ET, and Trump’s appearance has been waived. Trump’s legal team had requested a delay until next week as none of the attorneys could appear on his behalf this week. They argue that the proposed protective order by prosecutors is too broad and would infringe on Trump’s First Amendment rights. It aims to prevent the public disclosure of evidence.
