Trump Due To Fly To New York For Court Appearance Over Criminal Charges

Trump Due To Fly To New York For Court Appearance Over Crimi

Former United States President Donald Trump is due to fly to New York City from Florida for his scheduled arraignment on Tuesday.

The ex-President's case is related to a hush-money payment made to an actress in pornographic films before the 2016 presidential election.

Trump, the first former president to face criminal charges, is expected to be arraigned, fingerprinted and photographed at the central Manhattan courthouse.

The New York investigation led by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg centres on a $130,000 payment that Michael Cohen, Trump’s former personal lawyer and fixer, made to adult film star Stormy Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford.

Trump’s lawyers have said he will enter a plea of not guilty.

A court official said the arraignment is planned for 2:15pm (18:15 GMT) on Tuesday. Trump will then return to Florida and deliver remarks at Mar-a-Lago at 8:15pm (00:15 GMT on Wednesday).
