Donald Trump will be arraigned Sept. 6 in Atlanta in the criminal case where he is accused of conspiring to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia, a court docket showed Monday morning.
Trump’s arraignment will take place at 9:30 a.m. ET that day in Fulton County Superior Court, and the former president will be asked to enter a plea in the case at that time.
His former lawyer Rudy Giuliani will be arraigned in the same case at his own plea hearing that day at 9:45 a.m., the court docket shows.
The other 17 defendants in the case, who include Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, other Trump-allied lawyers, and would-be Electoral College voters for Trump, are scheduled to be arraigned that day starting at 10 a.m.
Steven Sadow, Trump’s attorney in the Georgia case, did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the arraignment schedule.
All 19 defendants in the case surrendered in Atlanta last week to be booked. Eighteen of them were released on bonds of varying amounts.
Just one of them, Harrison Floyd, remains in Fulton County jail after he was denied release.
Floyd is being kept in custody because, among other things, he did not reach a bond agreement with the district attorney’s office ahead of his surrender.
