Special counsel Jack Smith filed opposition to keeping federal election interference case on hold while Trump appeals.
Smith proposes expedited briefing and oral argument next month for a speedy resolution.
Smith’s team argued that delay “threatens to frustrate the public interest in a speedy and fair verdict — a compelling interest in every criminal case and one that has unique national importance here, as it involves federal criminal charges against a former President for alleged criminal efforts to overturn the results of the Presidential election, including through the use of official power.”
Smith suggests Supreme Court reject Trump’s stay application or expedite it as a petition for review.
Best hope for trial before election if court decides to weigh in.
