the more she drags out (without an official "on paper" decision on any number of critical motions) the more likely that she'll be forced to delay the May date--much to her "client," Trump's delight. It seems apparent that she made this statement today only to avoid Fanni Willis being able to move into that May date with her case, yet I hold out zero belief that Cannon intends to keep it. She will just stay close enough to the line to avoid prosecution from demanding a recusal while ultimately delaying things sufficiently that that May date will never happen.
