The former president not obligated to appear in court, but he's seized the opportunity to create a media spectacle that puts him back in the spotlight and once again portrays himself as a victim of a politicized justice system.

A state court judge imposed a limited gag order in former President Donald Trump's civil business fraud trial and ordered him to delete a social media post that publicly maligned a key court staffer. FOX 5 NY's Lissette Nuñez has the details.

Judge Arthur Engoron already has ruled that Trump committed fraud by inflating the values of prized assets including his Trump Tower penthouse. The ruling could, if upheld on appeal, cost the former president control of his signature skyscraper and some other properties. But after he assailed Engoron's principal law clerk on social media Tuesday, the judge imposed a limited gag order, commanding all participants in the trial not to hurl personal attacks at court staffers. The judge told Trump to delete the "disparaging, untrue and personally identifying post," and the former president took it down.
