It's a date: Trump's first felony trial will be April 15

• Trump was in court in Manhattan when he learned his hush-money trial date: April 15. 
•  The date was set during a contentious pre-trial hearing.
• The trial on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records is expected to last six weeks.

A Manhattan judge has set an April 15 date for jury selection in Donald Trump's hush money case, the GOP presidential frontrunner's first of four criminal trials.

At a contentious pre-trial court hearing, New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan shot down the Trump legal team's efforts to delay the trial further.

"See you all on the 15th," Merchan said.
