A New York judge indicated he may be willing to delay Donald Trump’s hush-money trial after the former president’s lawyers complained it’ll conflict with a federal trial in Washington.
The New York case is scheduled for March 25 and the former president is also due to go on trial March 4 in Washington on charges he illegally attempted to overturn the results of the 2020 election. The government has estimated the Washington prosecution could last six weeks.
Trump also faces two other criminal trials and two civil trials as he seeks the Republican Party’s nomination for president, highlighting not only the legal hurdles his lawyers confront defending him but also the pileup of cases his judges face. The March 4 Washington trial is scheduled a day before the Super Tuesday primaries.
US District Judge Tanya Chutkan in Washington last month ordered Trump to go to trial on March 4 over his efforts to overturn the election, while the former president also faces a May 20 trial in federal court in Florida for his handling of classified documents. Meanwhile, a Georgia case tied to Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election has yet to be scheduled.
