Trump lawyers back in DC court as two sides differ over trial date in election subversion case

U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan is expected to set at least a tentative trial date during Monday’s status conference.

Another potential agenda item could be additional discussion on any constraints on Trump in publicly discussing evidence in the case. Chutkan said at a hearing earlier this month that she would “take whatever measures are necessary to safeguard the integrity of the case” and warned that “inflammatory” statements about the proceedings could prompt her to move the case more quickly to trial to prevent witness intimidation or jury pool contamination.
