A federal judge in Fort Pierce, Florida has set the trial date for former President Donald Trump's criminal case for May 20, 2024. Trump's attorneys had asked for an indefinite delay, citing the 2024 presidential election, but the judge denied their request. The trial will address charges of unlawfully retaining national defense information, obstruction, and conspiracy, and is the first criminal case against a former president in U.S. history. It is expected to be a lengthy and complex process, with both sides presenting evidence and witnesses to support their arguments.
