Former President Trump’s legal team asked the federal judge in Florida overseeing his classified documents case to postpone the trial without setting a new date, saying there is “no reason” for it to take place in December.

The Justice Department has asked U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon for a mid-December trial date, but Mr. Trump’s attorneys said having a trial in the middle of the 2024 election cycle could make it difficult to secure an impartial jury. Mr. Trump is currently the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024.

Mr. Trump’s team asked Judge Cannon to withdraw the current order setting a trial date and “postpone” consideration of a new trial date.
