Missouri had argued that the rights of Missouri voters to hear from presidential candidates were being violated by the New York criminal proceeding.
The Supreme Court rejected Missouri’s attempts to halt former President Donald Trump’s sentencing and gag order in his New York hush money case.
In an unsigned two-sentence order, the court denied Missouri's motion for leave to file a bill of complaint, and dismissed as moot the state's motion for preliminary relief or a stay. In the meantime, Missouri’s Republican Attorney General Andrew Bailey took the extremely unusual step of seeking permission from the high court to file a so-called original appeal, which normally involves disputes between states over such matters as water rights and boundary disputes.
