Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has proposed a trial date of March 4 in her case levying allegations against former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants, as reported by CNBC. The charges revolve around so-called attempts to overturn Georgia’s 2020 election results.
Court records also reveal that Willis is pushing for the formal arraignment of Trump and the co-defendants to take place in the week starting September 5. Prior to this, she had given an ultimatum of noon on August 25 for the accused parties to voluntarily submit to Georgia legal authorities.
However, Trump appears to be gearing up to challenge this schedule. Throughout his multiple legal proceedings, Trump’s legal team has repeatedly sought trial postponements, aiming for dates after the 2024 presidential elections.
Parallel to the Georgia situation, Alvin Bragg’s trial has also been scheduled for March 25. The timing of these trials, particularly the early March date for such a high-stakes case, has raised eyebrows in many circles.
Super Tuesday, a monumental day in the U.S. election cycle, occurs on March 5th, one day before the proposed trial date in Fulton County. The overlap of the events will make it extremely difficult for Trump.
