A state appeals court on Wednesday quietly denied a request by Donald Trump’s lead attorney to push back some key proceedings in the case aimed at dismissing the former president’s racketeering (RICO) and election subversion charges in Georgia.
In a terse, one-sentence-long order, the Georgia Court of Appeals declined to reschedule oral arguments — ruling against a request by Trump’s attorney, Steve Sadow, to grant a continuance for him to accommodate long-ago scheduled international travel plans.
Just remember, Steve, when you’re stuck in a courtroom in Georgia instead of celebrating your birthday and anniversary abroad, that you chose to represent Donald Trump. And all those motions you filed to delay the case, well… guess you shouldn’t have done that.
“But Your Honor, I never believed those delaying tactics would work so well! Who could have guessed we’d still be doing this?!”
