The Manhattan District Attorney's Office on Thursday said it is not opposed to delaying the start of its criminal trial against Donald Trump, citing newly disclosed evidence from the U.S. Attorney's office in Manhattan.
District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office says defense attorneys for the former president waited until the very last minute to subpoena documents from federal prosecutors and then consented to repeated delays for those documents to be turned over. Judge Juan Merchan will still have to rule on the request and it remains unclear when that will happen.

He is asking for a delay pending the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity in the federal election interference case.
