It could be a consequential week in all four criminal cases against Trump
About this episode
For this episode of Trump's Trials, NPR's Juana Summers speaks with senior political correspondent Domenico Montanaro.
Former President Donald Trump is facing a big week in all four of the criminal cases against him.
Two of the biggest developments are set to come out of New York and Georgia. In the New York hush money case, a judge will determine this week if the case will begin as scheduled on March 25th. Meanwhile, in Georgia, a hearing is set this week to determine whether Fulton Country District Attorney Fani Willis should be disqualified from the state's election interference case over allegations she misused public funds. At the same time, the Supreme Court is considering whether to weigh in on a lower court's decision that Trump is not immune from prosecution in the Jan. 6 case. And in the classified documents case, the judge is considering Trump's lawyers' motion to postpone deadlines that could push the case back from its scheduled May 20th start date.
Topics include:
- Immunity appeal
- Florida classified documents case
- Trial schedule for New York hush money case
- Georgia evidence hearing
