In the Georgia election interference case, conflicting legal strategies of 19 co-defendants and the crowded calendar for Donald Trump's other court cases complicate the path to trial.
Christian Monterrosa/AFP via Getty ImagesThe Fulton County Courthouse in Atlanta is seen on Tuesday., the Georgia election interference case may be entering its most frenzied period yet, as the conflicting legal strategies of 19 co-defendants and the crowded calendar for the former president's other court cases complicate the path to trial.Several defendants are seeking to have their cases tried in federal court. Two defendants moved for a speedy trial to occur this fall.
Anthony Michael Kreis, a law professor at Georgia State University, says there's another potential benefit for Meadows. Trump may also try a similar move. His lead counsel, Steven Sadow, observed Meadows' Monday hearing from the gallery.
It's also uncertain whether an order removing one defendant's case would drag all the other defendants along to federal court as well, meaning the decision on Meadows could have implications for the entire case.Meanwhile, defendants Kenneth Chesebro and Sidney Powell, both lawyers for Trump after the 2020 election, have moved for a"speedy trial."
