[QUOTE="ChiefGritty, post: 2083716, member: 746137"] It's a matter of scheduling the judge and courtroom. The trial takes how long it takes, and if it goes longer than 3 days they will just reschedule other matters, but this means they are blocking 3 days off with nothing else scheduled for the trial. Generally, lots of different cases get scheduled for trials on the same day(s), the idea being that there are frequently plea bargain deals finalized on trial day, or one of the parties wants to delay for some reason, so scheduling multiple at the same time maximizes the possibility that some trial will occupy that space. Generally speaking I would say the chances of the trial actually occurring on the first scheduled date is relatively low, but obviously TSJ is in a unique hurry here. Still possible it gets kicked further though, especially if TSJ's defense has some reason to seek additional investigative/prep time, winning this case takes precedence over all other considerations.
