Mounting delays cast doubt on future Trump trials

Judge Aileen Cannon’s indefinite delay of Donald Trump’s documents trial is among the latest roadblocks to the former president seeing trial in several of the outstanding cases against him ahead of the election.

Cannon on Tuesday granted one of the earliest asks from Trump’s legal team in declining to set an ultimate trial date — leaving unclear when it will come before a jury. She otherwise shuffled the schedule to spend more time on legal issues raised as far back as February.
