Legal expert Phil Holloway provided analysis on the Trump cases, saying it is very unlikely they will reach trial before the 2022 election.

Holloway drew from the Young Thug case, where jury selection alone took over a year due to complexity.

“There’s no way on God’s green earth that’s going to happen!” Holloway said.

He noted the Trump indictments make conclusory statements that should be decided by a judge or jury.

Holloway also pointed to the high probability of appeals on issues like disqualification and dismissal arguments.

“It took them over a year just to pick a jury. So if we started picking a jury today in the Trump-Rico case with all the defendants that are remaining, there’s no way the trial would start for probably two years,” he said.

“She’s saying things in that indictment like she’s calling the electors fraudulent and fake, and basically that’s putting the cart before the horse because these are conclusory statements that really should be left for a judge or a jury to decide,” Holloway said. “The constitutional issues particularly should be appealed if the defense loses. Those should be appealed also pre-trial.”

Separately, a judge granted a defendant in Trump’s Georgia case permission to appeal to the state appeals court on whether the district attorney overstepped her authority in bringing election-related racketeering charges without following typical procedures involving a grand jury.
