Mayes asks court to cancel school funding trial, set to begin Monday
Just days before a school funding trial five years in the making is set to begin, Arizona’s new Democratic attorney general, Kris Mayes, has asked for a delay so her office has time to determine"whether some or all of this litigation can be resolved without the need for a trial."
A motion filed by Mayes on Jan. 4 asks for Monday's planned trial start date to be canceled and for Mayes —alongside Gov. Katie Hobbs, also a newly elected Democrat — to be given at least 45 days to assess the case.Already, according to the filing in Maricopa County Superior Court, some of the state's positions related to the case have changed.
The plaintiffs agree with the attorney general that the current trial date should be canceled, said Danny Adelman, executive director of the Arizona Center for Law in the Public Interest, which is helping litigate the case against the state.
