Donald Trump is accused in the New York criminal case of falsifying business records related to a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.
That trial is set to begin amid the presidential primary season and less than eight months before the 2024 election. Trump is currently seeking the Republican nomination for that race.
Merchan warned Trump that he could be sanctioned if he violates an order that restricts his ability to make public evidence and other material related to the the criminal case. The judge earlier this month issued that protective order after the Manhattan District Attorney's Office raised what it called substantial concerns that Trump would "inappropriately" use the material or post it on social media.
Trump was indicted in late March by a grand jury, which accused him of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.
