Trump may attend two major hearings in different states, causing a double booking
Former President Trump’s Legal Challenges Heat Up as Court Hearings Approach
Former President Donald Trump’s lawyer has put an end to rumors suggesting that Trump would be attending two separate court hearings in different states on Thursday. As the timelines for his legal challenges start to intensify over the next few months, Trump’s attorney, Steve Sadow, clarified that Trump will only be attending court in New York on Thursday for the hush money case brought against him by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
Reports had previously circulated that Trump would also be present at the hearing in Fulton County, Georgia, regarding allegations of an improper relationship between District Attorney Fani Willis and the lead prosecutor in the election subversion case. However, Sadow dismissed these reports as “pure speculation.”
Key Hearings and Trials
Thursday will see New York Judge Juan Merchan addressing Trump’s motion to dismiss the case, marking the beginning of the former president’s first criminal trial. Trump is facing a total of 91 felony counts and has pleaded not guilty to all of them. Specifically, he is charged with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in New York, which stem from hush money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign.
It is worth noting that the start date for the New York trial, initially set for March 25, may be subject to change due to Trump’s federal election subversion case in Washington, D.C. The Washington case, which was scheduled to begin on March 4, has been delayed. The judge has indicated that the start date for the New York trial could be affected by the Washington case.
The Washington Examiner has reached out to Sadow to confirm Trump’s appearance in New York.
