Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is asking a judge to schedule a March 4 trial date in the criminal case against former President Donald Trump and 18 others accused of conspiring to subvert the 2020 election result in Georgia.

Willis’ proposed scheduling order would have arraignments take place the week of Sept. 5 with a trial to begin six months later, the week before Georgia’s 2024 GOP presidential primary.
