Ex-Trump lawyers Sidney Powell, Kenneth Chesebro to go to trial Oct. 23 in Fulton County, judge says

Former Trump attorneys Sidney Powell and Kenneth Chesebro will go to trial Oct. 23, 2023, in Fulton County, Georgia, without the other 17 co-defendants in the 2020 election case, Judge Scott McAfee ruled Thursday.

McAfee's decision comes after the other 17 co-defendants, including former President Donald Trump, did not request a speedy trial.

All co-defendants in the case have pleaded not guilty to charges related to alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in favor of Trump.
