Judge Chutkan Gives Trump Extra Weeks to File Evidence Motions in Election Subversion Trial, Denies Longer Delay to February

Trump's lawyers now have until November 27th and December 13th to file motions for subpoenas and to compel prosecutors to produce evidence in the election subversion case, a shorter extension than requested.

Judge Tanya Chutkan denied former President Donald Trump's request for a lengthy delay in his election subversion trial, but granted his legal team an extension until November 27 to file motions for subpoenas and until December 13 to compel prosecutors to produce evidence.
Trump's attorneys asserted that the evidence provided by the government was extensive and not well organized, making it difficult to review everything before the original deadline of November 9.
The trial, scheduled to commence on March 4, accuses Trump of obstructing the 2020 election, with charges including conspiracy to defraud the United States, witness tampering, conspiracy against the rights of citizens, and obstruction of an official proceeding.
Chutkan found most of Trump's arguments unsatisfactory, stating the court was aware of the large volume of discovery material when the schedule was set. She noted the trial could face further delays if Trump's February 9 extension request was agreed to.
This is the second time Chutkan has extended the deadlines for Trump's attorneys. The original deadline for these motions was October 9, which was then extended to November 9 before the latest ruling.
