Republican presidential nominee and former U.S. President Donald Trump gestures as he holds a rally at the Cambria County War Memorial Arena in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, U.S. August 30, 2024.
The superseding indictment accuses Trump of the same four criminal counts as the original indictment issued by another grand jury last year.
Special counsel Jack Smith, whose team is prosecuting Trump, sought the new indictment to comply with a Supreme Court ruling on Trump's claims of presidential immunity.
Trump remains accused of crimes related to his efforts to allegedly illegally overturn his loss to President Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
Smith's office said in a court filing last week that it would not mind if Trump waived his appearance at the arraignment on the revised indictment.
