Special counsel Jack Smith’s team wants to begin jury selection in December for Donald Trump’s trial over charges that he tried to overturn the 2020 election.
Prosecutors says they want to start the trial on January 2, 2024. They expect it will take 4 to 6 weeks to present their case.
They also indicate they expect to produce almost all of the evidence in the case to Trump’s attorneys by August 28.
Trump could clinch the GOP presidential nomination and be convicted of multiple federal crimes — within a few weeks of each other.
