The first-ever criminal trial of a former US president is set to start next month, with Donald Trump defending himself against allegations of conducting a hush-money cover-up.
The 77-year-old appeared in court in New York on Thursday, seeking to have the trial dismissed or delayed.
But Judge Juan Merchan was not swayed by arguments that the trial’s timetable would hurt his presidential campaign.
Mr Trump called the decision to start the trial on 25 March a "disgrace".
