Trump 'overstates' volume of evidence in the case and 'exaggerates the challenge of reviewing it effectively,' special counsel Jack Smith wrote.
To set a trial more than two-and-a-half-years away "would deny the public its right to a speedy trial," Smith wrote in a six-page filing in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.
"In fact, comparisons such as those are a distraction from the issue at hand — which is determining what is required to prepare for trial," he wrote. Former US President and 2024 presidential hopeful Donald Trump hits balls on the practice range ahead of the LIV Golf Invitational series tournament at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in Bedminster, New Jersey, on August 9, 2023.Smith contended that millions of pages of materials sent to Trump's team were provided out of an abundance of caution and should not require significant time to sift through.
