"In our judgment, that trial date is inconsistent with President Trump's right to due process and the right to effective assistance of counsel," Lauro said in the hearing. But Trump's proposal for an April 2026 trial date went "far beyond what is necessary," the judge said, NBC News reported. A federal judge on Monday set a March 4, 2024, trial date in former President Donald Trump 's criminal election interference case, putting the top Republican presidential candidate on trial in Washington, D.C., seven months before the 2024 general election . Trump, a top Republican presidential candidate who is facing four separate criminal cases, has sought to move his trials past the November 2024 election. Chutkan noted Monday that she spoke with the New York judge overseeing Trump's case in Manhattan, which is also set to go to trial in March.

FTX Founder Sam Bankman-Fried leaves from Manhattan Federal Court after court appearance in New York, on June 15, 2023. Sam Bankman-Fried's legal team is asking a U.S. district court judge to grant the former FTX CEO "uninterrupted access" to his daily prescribed medication while he is in jail. "And for the past three years, Mr. Bankman-Fried has been prescribed Adderall 10mg tablets, 3-4x/day for the treatment of ADHD." On Friday, Judge Kaplan sided with a request by federal prosecutors to revoke Bankman-Fried's bail over alleged witness tampering. For nearly a year, there's been a nationwide shortage of Adderall, the popular stimulant used to treat ADHD.

☆ Wyoming abortion ban blocked due to Obamacare-era amendment

Abortion is legal in Wyoming again, oddly enough as the result of a state constitutional amendment pushed by conservatives opposed to Obamacare more than a decade ago. Anti-abortion lawmakers in Wyoming have tried to work around the 2012 amendment in passing the ban on abortion. The state's sweeping ban, dubbed "Life is a Human Right Act," claims that abortion is not a form of health care. It's unclear whether the court will ultimately agree that the anti-Obamacare amendment prohibits a state abortion ban. For instance, a judge in Ohio in October temporarily blocked the state's abortion ban because of a constitutional provision adopted in 2011 as a backlash to Obamacare.

A view of the U.S. Supreme Court building on the first day of the court's new term in Washington, U.S. October 3, 2022. Schenck said the ruling was also shared with a handful of advocates, according to the report. The Burwell v. Hobby Lobby decision was a victory for conservatives, much like the Supreme Court's recent 5-4 decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, the historic ruling that established the constitutional right to abortion in the U.S. in 1973. In Burwell v. Hobby Lobby, the court ruled that it was a violation of religious freedom for family-owned businesses to be required to pay for insurance that covers contraception. Representatives for the Supreme Court and Chief Justice John Roberts didn't immediately comment.
