The New York state judge defending his work in Donald Trump's civil fraud trial rejects a mistrial bid by Trump's lawyers, who accused him of political bias.

The judge denies claims of co-judging with his law clerk and states that his rulings are his alone.

The trial, brought by the New York attorney general, is expected to continue into December and Trump is expected to appeal the judge's decision. [ more ]
