Early as obviously the first day of the new year you could have a case begin. trump railing against that on social media. when do you expect his attorneys, though, to officially respond? they re going to have to by next thursday, so one week from today, trump s lawyers will come into court and they ll lay out the schedule that they want. as you said, quite plausibly, they would be asking for after t election. whether the judge would want to do that, that seems pretty unlikely. this judge has indicated she wants to move things along in this case. what the prosecutors are asking for here, it s not just a january 2nd start date of the trial itself, they actually want jury selection to begin just four months from now in december before the holidays, so a jury can be seated and then the trial can kick off right after the new year. so that s a pretty aggressive time line, and the prosecutors say they want that because it s of public importance that this deserves a prompt resolution. he s r ....
