Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has proposed a March start date for the trial of former President Donald Trump and 18 others on charges related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia.
The court filing proposed a start date of March 4. The date is one day before Super Tuesday in the 2024 presidential race.

Willis, in the proposed pretrial scheduling order filed on Wednesday, also suggested that arraignment take place "for the various defendants" three weeks from now, on the week of September 5 .
"In light of the Defendant Donald John Trump's other criminal and civil matters pending in the courts of our sister sovereigns, the State of Georgia proposes certain deadlines that do not conflict with these other courts' already scheduled hearings and trial dates," the filing states.
