Trump’s Classified Documents Case May Be Pushed Back

“The judge overseeing Donald Trump’s indictment for allegedly mishandling national security secrets suggested at a hearing Wednesday that she might push back the planned trial timeline, as courts wrestle with the growing complexity of juggling four separate criminal cases and an ongoing civil trial against the former president,” the Washington Post reports.

“Judge Aileen M. Cannon listened to prosecutors argue for keeping the schedule she set earlier this year, which includes a trial in May 2024, while lawyers for the former president insisted they needed more time to prepare.”

The judge said she would rule on the schedule “as soon as possible.”
