US judge sets hearing on evidence in Trump's 2020 election case

A federal judge presiding over former President Donald Trump's trial on charges of trying to overturn the 2020 election has ordered his attorneys and federal prosecutors to appear in court on Friday for a hearing to help determine how evidence can be used and shared in the case.

US District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan set the hearing for Friday at 10am ET (1400GMT), shortly after Trump's attorneys and members of US Special Counsel Jack Smith's office had clashed in a joint court over when to schedule the proceeding.
