Dec. 4 (Reuters) - (This Dec. 4 story has been refiled to change the
proposed start of Georgia trial to Aug. 5 from Aug. 4, in paragraph 19)

Former U.S. President Donald Trump faces a tangled calendar in the year
ahead as he seeks the 2024 Republican nomination while defending himself
in four criminal and at least three civil trials, some related to his
attempts to overturn his 2020 loss.

Here are key dates in Trump's legal schedule


JAN. 16, 2024
Start of a federal civil trial in Manhattan, in which an anonymous jury
will decide how much Trump will have to pay for defaming writer E. Jean Carroll. The judge has already found Trump liable for defaming her by
denying that he raped the former magazine columnist. Carroll is seeking
$10 million in damages. Trump is seeking to get the case dismissed. Advertisement · Scroll to continue

Carroll has already won $5 million from Trump for defamation and sexual
assault in a separate civil case. Trump is appealing that verdict.

JAN. 29, 2024
A federal civil trial starts in Manhattan, in which three people accuse
Trump and his company of fraudulently promoting a multilevel marketing
scheme before he was president.

MARCH 4, 2024
Trial starts in a federal criminal case in Washington that charges Trump
with illegally trying to reverse his 2020 election loss.

MARCH 25, 2024
Scheduled start of a New York state criminal trial, in which Trump is
accused of falsifying business records to cover up a hush-money payment to
a porn star before the 2016 presidential election. This date may change if
it conflicts with the federal case in Washington.

MAY 20, 2024
Scheduled start of a federal criminal trial in Miami, in which Trump is
charged with unlawfully keeping classified government documents after
leaving office and lying to officials who sought to recover them.


AUG. 5, 2024
Proposed start of a Georgia racketeering case against Trump and 18 other defendants, who are charged with interfering with that state's 2020
election results. Four of the defendants have pleaded guilty. Fulton
County Prosecutor Fani Willis has said the trial could potentially last
until 2025, well past the next presidential election. The judge on the
case has not yet set a trial date.
