Paul Manafort tells judge he has no interest in attending his hearing on his broken plea agreement: court filing

Former 2016 Donald Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort filed a motion to "waive his right to appear" in court on Friday.

The hearing is over special counsel Robert Mueller seeking to revoke Manafort's plea agreement.

Manafort, who is currently incarcerated pending sentencing, cited the "time involved" in attending court as his reason for not attending.
