Judge Chutkan swiftly smacks down six motions a day after setting March 2024 trial date

U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan denied six motions on Tuesday in the federal elections case against former President Donald Trump.

A day after setting Trump's trial date for March 4, Chutkan wasted no time shooting down the six motions.

At least one document was described as a brief "in support of Donald Trump."

Other motions denied were from the Galaxy Bar Association, "D.A. Feliciano," and Victor Shorkin. It was not immediately clear which side those motions supported. A Petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus was also denied.

Chutkan has set a brisk trial schedule, with pre-trial motions due by October 9. Trump's team had asked for a 2026 trial date.
