Prosecutors and defence lawyers in the classified documents case against former President Donald Trump are due in court for the first time since the judge indefinitely postponed the trial earlier this month.

The case, among four criminal prosecutions against Trump, had been set for trial on May 20 but US District Judge Aileen Cannon cited numerous issues she has yet to resolve as a basis for cancelling the trial date.
