Donald Trump Asks To Delay The Mar-a-Lago Documents Case (says his lead counsel is too busy with the NY trial)
https://www.meidastouch.com/news/donald-trump-asks-to-delay-the-mar-a-lago-documents-caseThis morning, on day three of Donald Trump's hush money trial in New York City, his attorneys filed a reply in south Florida asking Judge Cannon to delay the upcoming deadlines for Trump's expert disclosures and CIPA Notice for an additional three weeks after he conclusion of Trump's New York trial. The primary reason for the delay is because Trump's attorneys, namely Todd Blanche, are focused on the New York trial and need additional time to make filings in south Florida.
In his reply, Trump says that the New York trial is moving "expeditiously" and that jury selection could be completed this week. The trial in New York is estimated to take 6-8 weeks.

Apparently, he has enough time for nap breaks.
In my amateurish opinion, the Prosecutor should push back hard on this one, which they undoubtedly will. But, Y’know, Cannon.
