Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is seeking to restrict former President Donald Trump in the case involving alleged hush money payments.
The New York Times reported on Monday that Bragg’s office filed a motion calling for a gag order to be imposed against Trump saying that the former president has a “longstanding history of attacking witnesses, investigators, prosecutors, judges, and others involved in legal proceedings against him.”
Newsweek reached out to Trump’s spokesperson via email for comment.
