CNBC reported:
A judge on Tuesday imposed a limited gag order on Donald Trump in his criminal hush money case in New York.
Trump must refrain from making public statements about likely witnesses and jurors in the case, Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan said in a court order.
Trump is also barred from speaking about lawyers in the case, court staff, employees in the Manhattan District Attorney’s office and their family members if those statements are made with the “intent to materially interfere” with the case, the judge ruled.
President Trump on Monday blasted Alvin Bragg’s case as a “witch hunt.”
