Who is claiming that Smith wants to remove the case?
I mean if you have this news then fine, link to his statement. If not, then she will schedule the evidentiary hearings.
I mean seriously? What if an asteroid hits earth tomorrow. The case will be delayed. However I have no evidence of that happening, can't provide any source.
You understand that due process is still prevalent correct
The opinion read that the lower court will have to determine "whether a prosecution involving Trump's attempts to influence the Vice President's oversight of the certification proceeding in his capacity as President of the Senate would pose any dangers of intrusion on the authority and functions of the Executive Branch."

The evidence is the SCOTUS ruling and today's ruling......
Did you forget what thread you were in or how courts work?
and
U.S. District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan now must decide which if any of Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election while president may be prosecutable. A trial will not be possible before the November election matchup against likely Democratic nominee Vice President Harris however, since whatever the judge decides is expected to wind up back before the Supreme Court next year.
so as far as settled before the election seems that is a hard no and if/when he does win it would end the matter entirely , which i THINK would then nuke the ny case as i think they predicated that one on him commiting the act hes acused of here as one of the reasons they could charge him with 34 felonies in the first place
“There’s no point in haste now, because there’s no way to do the trial now before the election,” former federal prosecutor and George Washington University law professor Randall Eliason said. If Trump wins in November and returns to the White House in January, his Justice Department would be expected to drop the case, and he could not be prosecuted while in office anyway. “If he loses, there will be plenty of time to do a trial next year and get all the issues right,” Eliason said.
