Trump's scheduled trial dates and where they fall in the presidential primary calendar
View

Former President Donald Trump is facing four felony trials with proposed start dates in 2024, as he vies for the Republican presidential nomination.
A trial start date does not mean the prosecution and defense will begin making their arguments then. A trial date marks the beginning of jury selection.
But the initial dates set by the judges in each case could still shift. Trump's attorneys are expected to file motions in an effort to delay his trials. Trump's attorneys would like for all of the trials to take place after the election.
