An Atlanta prosecutor on Thursday asked a judge to begin the Georgia election interference trial for Donald Trump and 18 other defendants on Oct. 23.
The scheduling request by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis came a day after one of Trump’s co-defendants, attorney Kenneth Chesebro, filed a demand for a speedy trial in the county Superior Court.
Willis directly cited Chesebro’s demand in her filing Thursday.
This seemed to be popular information when I posted it (ahem) “elsewhere”. Thought it might be welcome to have here.

The E. Jean Carroll trial for sexual assault and defamation where Trump was found liable and ordered to pay $5 million before immediately defaming her again resulting in a demand for $10 million is not listed as it’s a civil case and not a crimimal one. That trial date is currently set for January 15th, the same day as the Iowa caucus.
Can’t wait for the panicked responses from TrumpWorld.
Am I really the only one amused that a cheese bro is named Chesebro?
How about a Sept. 11 trial date for Giuliani?
Fani ain’t foolin.
Did I miss it in the article where the clarified whether that was Oct. 23rd, 2023, or Oct. 23rd 2024? That seems like a pretty important distinction.
