The judge this week set a trial date for August, but prosecutors said more time is needed to ensure the defense attorneys have the needed security clearances.
Prosecutors pointed to the need to obtain security clearances for the defense attorneys as the primary reason for the requested delay. Interim clearances can be obtained within 48 hours, the court filing said, but final approval needed to review all of the documents will take 45 to 60 days. Not all defense attorneys have submitted the proper paperwork to begin the process, the filing said.
Trump is accused of mishandling classified documents that he took with him after leaving the White House. The indictment that was made public this month indicated the documents in question remain classified. The Classified Information Procedures Act provides a set of guidelines to allow classified documents to be used in a trial. The filing detailed a proposed timeline to allow both sides to litigate how classified documents will be addressed during the trial.
Trump and codefendant Walt Nauta face 37 counts on seven charges, including making false statements, conspiracy to obstruct and willful retention of national defense information. Trump has denied any wrongdoing, insisted he was entitled to keep the documents and charged that his prosecution is politically motivated. He pleaded not guilty at a Miami courthouse earlier this month.
