Aileen picks a date

Judge Aileen Cannon scheduled [Trump's classified documents] trial for May 20.

[...]

"[E]ven accepting the Government's contested submission that nothing in this case presents a 'novel question of fact or law,' the fact remains that the Court will be faced with extensive pre-trial motion practice on a diverse number of legal and factual issues, all in connection with a 38-count indictment," the judge added.

The trial will take place at the federal court in Ft. Pierce, Florida. [...] The next hearing in the case is tentatively scheduled for August 25.

[...]

If the May court date holds, it means Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's hush money case against Trump, currently scheduled for March 24, will go to trial first.

[...]

He is first scheduled to stand trial in October in a $250 million civil lawsuit brought by the New York Attorney General, who has accused the Trump family of "grossly" inflating the former president's net worth by billions of dollars and cheating lenders and others with false and misleading financial statements.

In January, Trump is scheduled to stand trial in E. Jean Carroll's remaining defamation lawsuit, the date for which coincides with the Iowa caucuses.

His court date calendar is quickly filling.

DOJ asked for a documents trial date in December, and several legal analysts were saying that meant they were expecting an actual date in June after all the arguing and delays.
