Judge Tanya Chutkan orders delay in former presidents’ trial, which was due to start in Washington on 4 March


MailOnline 3 FEB 2024





A US judge has formally postponed Donald Trump’s trial on federal charges that the former president sought to overturn the 2020 election results.






The trial was due to start on 4 March in Washington before the delay ordered from the federal judge Tanya Chutkan.


Trial delays in general are not unusual in court cases. The delay in Trump’s trial in particular stems from an appeal by the ex-president that claims he is immune to prosecution for actions taken while he was in the Oval Office.

Chutkan had indicated in January that Trump’s original trial date – chosen last summer – would not hold because the case had been frozen by the former president’s appeal.

The judge has prohibited prosecutors from filing motions while the appeal is pending and made clear that Trump’s legal team would get a full seven-month period to prepare for the trial. Any time between December and the end of the appeals process would not count against that preparation period, Chutkan has also said.




Trump has been grappling with more than 90 criminal charges in various jurisdictions for subversion of the 2020 election, illegal retention of government secrets after he left the Oval Office, and hush-money payments to an adult film actor who has alleged extramarital sex with him.
