A judge on Wednesday denied motions brought by Kenneth Chesebro and Sidney Powell, two co-defendants in former President Donald Trump’s Georgia case, to sever their cases from one another.

At a hearing Wednesday, Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee rendered the decision after hearing arguments from defense attorneys and prosecutors, according to multiple local reports. It means that Mr. Chesebro and Mrs. Powell will be tried at the same time starting on Oct. 23.
