The Uncertain Trial Dates and Mounting Legal Bills for Trump's Georgia Case

Former President Donald Trump and his co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case are already at odds over when and where their trial will take place. Five defendants have sought to move the state case to federal court, which could result in the case splitting into smaller cases overseen by different judges on different timelines. The question of venue matters because it would affect the composition of the jury. Some defendants are seeking speedy trials, while Trump has indicated his intention to sever his case from the rest of the defendants. The legal maneuvering reflects the unique nature of the case, which involves a former president, Georgia Republican activists, and varying agendas among the defendants.
