NYC Mayor Eric Adams seeks earlier trial date to aid reelection campaign amid corruption charges.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has asked for his corruption trial to start earlier, on April 1, rather than the scheduled April 23 date.

Adams, indicted in September for accepting illegal perks and contributions, maintains his innocence and has pleaded not guilty. His lawyer argues the move would ensure a fair trial and clear distraction for voters.
