The judge overseeing Donald Trump’s classified documents case in Florida has again rejected the Donald’s request to delay the start date for the trial. https://twitter.com/axios/status/1723033282990809471 From Axios:
Trump’s legal team has repeatedly tried to delay the classified documents trial until after the 2024 presidential election, which, if he wins, could allow him to order the charges against him dropped.
Judge Aileen Cannon did, however, adjust pre-trial deadlines in the case, “given the evolving complexities in this matter,” per the order.
Cannon wrote that the amount of discovery in the case was “exceedingly voluminous” and that her order would, in a “reasonable fashion,” allow the defendants more time to review the material — while taking into account “the public’s right to a speedy trial.”
Judge Cannon (a Trump appointee) did allow that she will consider moving the trial date during a scheduled conference on March 1. https://twitter.com/CNBC/status/1723033511957836227
