CNBC reports:
A New York appeals court Thursday reinstated a gag order on Donald Trump in his $250 million civil business fraud trial. The order bars Trump from making public statements about the staff of Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Arthur Engoron, who is presiding over the ongoing trial.
Engoron had imposed that order on Trump, and later his attorneys, after they repeatedly targeted the judge’s principal law clerk, Allison Greenfield. In its order Thursday, a four-judge appellate panel lifted a temporary suspension of the gag order, which was put in place while Trump appealed the speech restrictions.
Read the full article. Yesterday Trump posted at least five separate attacks on the Engoron’s wife.
NEW: The gag order on Donald Trump in the New York civil fraud case has just been reinstated by an appellate court which means that Trump is, once again, prohibited from attacking the judge & his staff. Trump is gagged again. Good news for the rule of law & democracy.
