ORLANDO, Fla. — Gov. Ron DeSantis’ legal team wants the trial date for a high-stakes battle with Disney to be in August 2025, well after the presidential election.
Disney’s lawyers have another idea: They want to go to trial on July 15, 2024, the same day as Republicans gather in Milwaukee to formally select their party’s next presidential nominee.
The two sides’ proposals are outlined in a report filed Tuesday in federal court. It’ll be up to a judge to set the timetable.
