Special counsel Jack Smith urged the judge overseeing former President Donald Trump s classified documents case to reject any further efforts to delay his trial.

Trumps attorneys recently asked U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon to push back a deadline next month to review classified information related to the former presidents indictment into his handling of such material after he left the White House. They pointed to Trumps separate hush money case in Manhattan that is set to begin Monday, saying the deadline requires time he and his lawyers simply do not have .

But Smiths team said Cannons May 9 deadline had been imposed for months and accused Trumps team of reflexively asking to postpone a trial every time the court sets a new deadline.

The defendants have had ample notice that these deadlines would be scheduled and have already had months to complete the work, Smith wrote in a new court filing . Counsel should already be prepared to meet these deadlines, and in any event, other commitments are not grounds for postponement.
