Trump to Appeal Trial Date Decision

Former U.S. President Donald Trump announced that he will appeal the decision to set March 2024 as the start date for his trial on charges of attempting to overturn the 2020 election results, which he lost. However, legal experts have stated that this move is not possible before a ruling in the case. Trump wrote in a post on his social media platform, Truth Social, "I will appeal." He did not specify how or when the appeal would be made. Legal experts indicated that the decision to set a trial date is not a legitimate basis for an appeal before a judgment is reached. The scheduled trial in Washington is one of four criminal trials the former president is facing as he organizes a campaign for the Republican nomination for the 2024 presidential election.
