At a hearing on Monday, Chutkan said trial dates proposed by Trump and special counsel Jack Smith are not appropriate. Smith offered a trial early in 2024, while Trump wants a date in April 2026.
“Setting a trial date does not depend and should not depend on the defendant's personal and professional obligations. Mr Trump, like any defendant, will have to make the trial date work regardless of his schedule," This case is not going to trial in 2026,” Chutkan said.
The judge has set a March 4 trial date for Donald Trump in the federal case in Washington charging the former president with trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
This ruling followed by another ruling in the Georgia case.
