Summary
In an absurd legal brief, Trump's lawyers file a motion with New York State court judge Juan Merchan asking him to delay the April 15th trial date because there is too much publicity surrounding Trump and his crimes. And because too many potential jurors in New York already believe Trump is guilty.
Glenn takes on Trump's ridiculous motion seeking more delay in the commencement of his trial and also discusses where the presumption of innocence applies and where it doesn't.

| 0:00.0 | It's time for Justice Matters with former federal prosecutor and MS NBC analyst Glenn Kirchner. Donald Trump has filed another motion to delay the start of his first criminal |
| 0:19.8 | trial. Here's Glenn with details. Well friends yet again, Donald Trump and his lawyers have filed a motion in Trump's criminal case in New York, |
| 0:30.0 | which is scheduled to begin on April 15th. |
| 0:34.0 | And again, they are trying to delay the commencement of the trial. |
| 0:41.0 | Well, we're going to start with some of the new reporting and then we're going to have |
| 0:44.7 | a look at just a little bit of this new defense motion and we're going to have a good laugh |
| 0:51.2 | together because this is one ridiculous argument made by Donald Trump's attorneys. |
| 1:01.0 | Let's start with the new reporting. This from the business insider headline, |
| 1:07.0 | Trump complains in latest hush money delay bid that Manhattan already thinks he's guilty |
| 1:15.0 | and Michael Cohen keeps calling Donald Trump names. |
| 1:20.0 | As you can see friends, |

| 1:26.5 | begins, Donald Trump's lawyers are trying again to delay his hush money trial |
| 1:32.3 | this time arguing that pretrial publicity and the |
| 1:37.3 | demonstrable anti-Trump prejudice of Manhattan residents will make it impossible to get a fair jury trial anytime in April. |

| 2:20.3 | This 11th hour effort to push back Trump's April 15th trial date is the latest of a half a dozen such requests since August. |
