Donald Trump has plead not guilty to criminal charges in Georgia, where he and 18 others allegedly orchestrated a scheme to overturn the 2020 election results in the state.
The former president entered a not guilty plea in a court filing on Thursday in which he also waived his right to an arraignment, where the charges against him would be read in open court.
With a large motorcade, Trump last week trekked to Fulton County, GA, to be arrested, booked and then released. The spectacle drew coverage across the news and broadcast networks, and culminated in the release of his booking photo, a first for a former president.
Other defendants in the case also have waived their arraignments.
Trump faces charges include racketeering in the state case. No trial date has been set, but there is the possibility that cameras will be allowed to cover the proceedings. That is a contrast to New York, where Trump faces charges related to the hush money payments to Stormy Daniels, and federal cases in Washington, D.C. and Florida. In those three other proceedings, courts have a long history of prohibiting cameras from criminal proceedings.
Earlier this week, a federal judge in D.C. set March 4 for the start of Trump’s trial on federal charges related to his efforts to remain in power after the 2020 presidential election. The New York trial is scheduled to start March 25, and the Florida case on May 20.
