agreed to postpone the first pretrial conference scheduled in the proceedings to next week.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon said in a brief order Tuesday that the conference, which involves matters relating to the use of classified material as the case proceeds, would be pushed back four days, from Friday to July 18. The proceeding is set to take place at the federal courthouse in Fort Pierce, Florida, where Cannon sits.
The order comes after Walt Nauta, an aide to Trump who prosecutors name as a co-conspirator in the case, filed aMonday to delay the conference, as his lawyer, Stanley Woodward, is involved in a bench trial that began this week in Washington, D.C. The filing also indicates that Woodward has not yet received a security clearance.
Trump's lawyers did not oppose the request. But special counsel Jack Smith and his team argued that"an indefinite continuance is unnecessary, will inject additional delay in this case, and is contrary to the public interest." Federal prosecutors also wrote in aLawyers for Trump later that the parties, including Nauta's attorney and federal prosecutors, could meet for the conference on July 18.
