Politico: “Justice Juan Merchan’s trial schedule — driven by his habit of using Wednesdays to deal with other court business, as well as the Passover holiday — means Donald Trump’s trial will meet on seven days in April. On two of those days, court will adjourn early. Nearly all days are likely to be consumed by jury selection.
”“That means we may not get a single day of substantive testimony — or even opening arguments — until May.”
Some quick math: “Trial will be in session on April 16, 18 and 19 this week. Plus, the two shortened days on April 22 and 23. Then full trial days on April 25 and 26 before the trial recesses until May 2.”
