Caitlin what does trump’s new plea mean for this case what if only one page it’s just a couple sentences of donald trump saying he doesn’t want to show up at a hearing this happening on thursday and at that hearing that’s when he will have to be arraigned he will have to enter his pleading to this new indictment of the special counsel’s.
Office as has brought through the court system against the former president now wolf what’s important about this is that it puts things back into trial mode right in in the federal court you put that not guilty pleading in and then things progress toward a trial there are all kinds of legal arguments that have to take place before a trial before judge time check in on thursday.
She’s going to be talking about the schedule and the plan moving forward but what this piece of paper does it means that donald trump doesn’t have to show up in person the first time he was indicted in federal court related to the twenty twenty election he did go to court in person raised his right hand and told the guy
Judge he pleads not guilty to the for charges he was facing he’s facing those same for charges a new version of the indictment but he’s saying my lawyers are going to take care of this for me here’s the paper work with my signature on it i plead not guilty.
Sir andrew or there’s this here and coming up next week where do you think girl the timeline will look like and how the election potentially could impact lose
I think with the timeline of the review of this new indictment and the process the judge chucking will set out and with the lawyers are to kind of river make sure that the evidence it’s current we required to prove the case is does not go within the scope of those matters that the supreme court has said can and be used against president trump.
Because of his a presidential immunity this newly recognize presidential immunity oh there’s been a lot of speculation as to what that process will look like and how long it’ll take we don’t really have clear answers to those questions yet i think it’s unlikely that will see something like a mini trial or witnesses actually.
The testifying providing testimony in court i think it’s much more likely that the special counsel will try to do as much of this process and the back and forth arguments on the papers so through motion filings it’s possible though have some oral arguments around those things as well but this is judged shotgun and what you’re going to see from her is a very streamlined phone.
Ghost no nonsense procedure that’s designed to figure out what evidence can be used in this case is it goes forward and what evidence and potentially charges need to be left behind and were just being told that this the next hearing luxury be taking place this coming thursday so we’ll walk them very closely caitlin i know you’re also following news in trump’s new york case give us the latest information well in that case.
He is conducted a nice set to be sentenced on september eighteenth donald trump doesn’t want that to happen and so what he has done especially now that the supreme court waiting on presidential immunity at in this case in new york the hush money case he went to a federal judge and said the constitution.
Prevent me from being at sentence you should put things on hold you should move this out of state court in new york into a federal court and the judge the federal judge alvin heller seen up in new york he said now not this time you ask me once before nothing’s changed really i’m not taking this case into federal.
