    This seemed to be popular information when I posted it (ahem) “elsewhere”. Thought it might be welcome to have here.

    If you’re trying to keep track of where we’re at in the Trump prosecutions:

    Other grand juries, such as for the documents at Bedminster, have not been announced.

    The E. Jean Carroll trial for sexual assault and defamation where Trump was found liable and ordered to pay $5 million before immediately defaming her again resulting in a demand for $10 million is not listed as it’s a civil case and not a crimimal one.

        So I looked at it and I think the problem doing it on a Gantt chart is the scale.

        Georgia stated that the indictment could come any time between 7/11 and 9/1, so that’s a pretty big stretch on the chart, and the rest are single day events like the 1/6 Judge setting a trial date (8/28), or the two scheduled trial start dates next March and May.
