Prosecutors said that they are open to delaying the start of Donald Trump’s New York hush-money criminal trial to give the former president’s lawyers time to review evidence that was only recently turned over.

The Manhattan district attorney’s office said in a court filing on Thursday that it is not opposed to adjourning the start of the trial for no more than 30 days.
