Friday morning in d. c. federal court? anderson, this is a significant hearing. this is the first time that trump s defense attorneys and special counsel prosecutor would appear before judge tanya chutkan. the last hearing was handled by a magistrate judge, and chutkan is the one who is going to handle all of the hearings up until a likely trial. now, on friday, both sides will have the opportunity to make their arguments about what they think the rules should look like in this case for handling, and publicly sharing any sensitive information. prosecutors want broad protections, defense attorneys are seeking something more narrow. protections only for really sensitive information, which they argue would be more in line with what has happened another january 6th cases. judge chutkan is overseeing dozens of cases related to january 6th, she is an experienced judge, and on the bench for about a decade, and it appears, anderson, based on her scheduling orders so far, she is looking to mo ....
