A U.S. Circuit Court on Thursday, Released a Schedule for the Appeal of a Federal Judge's Dismissal of the Criminal Case, Charging Trump with Mishandling Top Secret Documents.
The Standard Calendar from the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, makes it unlikely there will be a Resolution of the Case before the November Election.
Special Counsel Jack Smith, who brought the Charges against Trump, filed an Appeal to the 11th Circuit on July 17th of District Court Judge Aileen Cannon's surprise Dismissal of the Case against Trump.
Cannon, a Trump Appointee, threw out the Documents Case earlier this month, on the grounds that Smith was Unlawfully Appointed, usurping the Role of Congress.
The 11th Circuit asked Smith to File His Initial Brief in the Case by August 27th, and gave Trump's Lawyers 30 days to respond. Smith then has 21 days to File a Reply to Trump's Brief.
If the Circuit Court Revives the Case against Trump, then He could Appeal to the Supreme Court.
Smith was Named Special Counsel in 2022, by President Biden's Attorney General, Merrick Garland.
He was tasked with Overseeing the Investigations into Trump's handling of Classified Documents after He left Office and His efforts to Overturn the 2020 Presidential Election Results.
These also include Charges in Washington, and Georgia related to efforts to Overturn the Results of the 2020 Election He Lost to Biden.
Cannon's Ruling followed a Supreme Court Opinion that former Presidents enjoy Immunity from Criminal Prosecution for their Official Acts. But, also asked the Appeal Court to determine what is are Official and Non-Official Acts.
This Decision has helped Trump in His Quest to Delay His Trials until after the November 5th Vote.
