Fulton County DA Sets March 2024 for Trump's Georgia Trial

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has proposed a trial date of March 4, 2024, for the case against former President Donald Trump and his associates, conveniently scheduled the day before Super Tuesday when fourteen states and American Samoa will hold their elections for the Republican nomination. The court date will precede the early nominating contests, and Trump currently leads in all four states. The indictment accuses Trump and 18 others of participating in a criminal enterprise to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia. Trump faces 13 criminal counts, including charges under Georgia's RICO law, conspiracy, forgery, and filing false documents.
