TL;DR

Lawyers for Donald Trump have requested a trial date in April 2026 for the federal charges against him regarding his alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election results. This proposed date would place the trial after the November 2024 U.S. election, in which Trump is the front-runner for the Republican nomination. U.S. Special Counsel Jack Smith had previously requested a trial to start on January 2, 2024, two weeks before the first votes are cast in the 2024 Republican presidential primary.
