Judge Cannon keeps Trump classified documents trial scheduled for May

Judge Aileen Cannon has decided that, for now, former President Donald Trump will still have a May 2024 trial before her on charges of mishandling classified documents.

Trump has pushed repeatedly to move this federal criminal trial and others past the November 2024 presidential election, citing how busy his and his lawyers’ schedule is, his demands on the campaign trail and the complexities of the cases.

Cannon has appeared to be sympathetic, and at this time has moved some deadlines–particularly related to the use of classified material in the case–back leading up to the trial, according to her order issued Friday.

But the judge says she will revisit other deadlines including potentially the trial date in her court in early March, days before Trump is set to go to trial for the first time as a criminal defendant in Washington, DC, a separate federal case related to his actions after the 2020 election.
