A Manhattan jury convicted Trump on May 30 of falsifying records for a potential sex scandal, becoming the first ex-president convicted. New York's appeals court denied his bid to lift the gag order, stating his conviction doesn't justify it, affecting his free speech rights.
The court upheld the gag order until Trump's sentencing because 'the fair administration of justice necessarily includes sentencing.' Trump's lawyers argued against the restrictions, citing Vice President Harris' presence in the presidential race as adding urgency and highlighting the imbalance in free speech permissions.
