Jack Smith, the special counsel handling the documents investigation into former President Donald J. Trump, vowed to seek a speedy trial.But that will be up to Judge Aileen M. Cannon, who will wield considerable power over its calendar, evidence and jury.Last year, Judge Cannon, a Trump appointee, briefly disrupted the documents investigation by issuing rulings favorable to him when he challenged the F.B.I.'s search of his Florida club and estate, Mar-a-Lago, before a conservative appeals court ruled that she never had legal authority to intervene.
