A trial date of 20 May has been set by a Florida judge after former president Trump was charged with illegally retaining hundreds of secret papers
A federal judge has set a trial date for Donald Trump in the classified US documents case in Florida - one of several legal battles he faces as he campaigns to regain the presidency.The date has been set for 20 May next year by US District Judge Aileen Cannon.
It is being seen as a compromise between prosecutors wanting to schedule the trial this December and a request from Trump's lawyers to have it after the next presidential election in November 2024.Trump pleaded not guilty to 37 federal charges that he unlawfully kept national security documents when he left office and lied to officials trying to recover them.
The authorities have said he schemed and lied to block the government from getting hold of the documents concerning nuclear programmes and other sensitive military secrets stored at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. Photos included in the indictment show boxes of documents stored on a ballroom stage, in a bathroom and strewn across a storage-room floor.
