The New York grand jury considering possible criminal charges against former President Donald Trump related to hush money payments to Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election is not expected to be asked to vote on an indictment this week, according to three sources familiar with the matter.

The grand jury is not expected to meet on Wednesday, the source said, the next day the panel was regularly scheduled to convene.

The development comes a day after the grand jury concluded its activities on Monday without voting on any indictment stemming from allegations made by Daniels, an adult film star who said she had an affair with Trump beginning in 2006.

The jury heard from an additional witness in the investigation on Monday.

The panel has been meeting Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. The sources cautioned that the schedule is subject to change, but that the grand jury for now is expected to return on Thursday to hear a matter separate from the Trump hush money case.
