Jeffrey Clark First Defendant to Oppose March 4 Trial Date in Georgia Elections Case

Epoch Times

Former Justice Department (DOJ) official Jeffrey Clark filed a motion to oppose the proposed March 4, 2024, trial date requested by the prosecution in a racketeering case brought by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis over former President Donald Trump’s contesting of the 2020 election results.

His lawyer called Ms. Willis’s proposed date “highly premature” (pdf).

“The indictment was filed at approximately 10:30 PM on Monday August 14, 2023, while the Motion was filed at 12:49 PM on August 16, 2023,” the motion reads, pointing out that not one of the 19 defendants named has even yet “been served with any warrant, taken into custody, had a first appearance, or been arraigned, or waived arraignment.”

The Arizona Legislature, along with 19 other states, submitted an amicus curiae brief at the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals last week supporting Idaho’s voter ID law, which prohibits student ID cards as an acceptable form of identification for voting. A lower court judge appointed by former President Joe Biden, Amanda K. Brailsford, already ruled in favor of the law, stating that the plaintiffs in March for Our Lives Idaho v. McGrane, which included both March For Our Lives Idaho and the Idaho Alliance for Retired Americans, failed to show proof of discrimination against youth voters.
