In the latest of example of Donald Trump’s attorneys successfully using delays they played a role in creating to seek delay in a separate criminal case, the former president’s defense on Wednesday notified the judge in the Mar-a-Lago matter  that proposed trial dates in the next few months “are no longer workable” given the recent adjournment in his New York hush-money prosecution.

Defense lawyers Todd Blanche and Christopher Kise in a two-page filing informed U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon that they’re going to be busy the next two months, making a Mar-a-Lago trial date in late May or early June a complete impossibility.
