An eventful week lies ahead in the Fulton County election interference case with arraignments and the potential release of a special grand jury report that was a prelude to the racketeering charges filed against Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants last month.

There have been a flurry of court filings and hearings on the 2020 election collusion case since a grand jury on Aug. 14  indicted the former Republican president and 18 of his supporters over allegations they illegally conspired to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia and several other states. 

Defendants are scheduled to appear in Fulton County Superior Court on Wednesday for their arraignments, during which they will be formally read the criminal charges they are facing and enter a plea of guilty or not guilty.
