Former Trump attorney Sidney Powell, one of 18 co-defendants in former President Donald Trump's Georgia racketeering case, requested to have a speedy trial in the case against her.
Powell is the second co-defendant to make such a request, as attorney Kenneth Chesebro requested a speedy trial on Thursday. His request was granted, giving him an Oct. 23 court date.Trump opposed Chesebro's motion, looking to have the two cases severed if the request was granted, which Judge Scott McAfee approved doing. Trump is likely to do the same in Powell's case if her request is granted.
NEW: Trump co-defendant Sidney Powell now is making demands for a speedy trial, similar to a request by co-defendant Kenneth Chesebro this week. Judge Scott McAfee has already slated Chesebro's trial to begin on Oct. 23 and said his case would be isolated from the other 18. pic.twitter.com/jjzhqrJ648According to Georgia state law, anyone who applies for a speedy trial in the current term must be granted a trial by Nov. 3. If the date passes with no trial, the defendant must be acquitted on all charges.Powell faces charges on six counts, including conspiracy to commit election fraud.
State GOP Sen. Shawn Still, who is being charged in connection with Powell and Trump's case, will have a hearing on whether to move his case to federal court on Sept. 18.
