A Georgia judge will let the watching world see him sign off on charges against former President Donald Trump if he is indicted for his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election in the Peach State.

“If a grand jury presents an indictment, that’s usually in the afternoon, and you can film and photograph that,” Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney said while discussing the looming case during a separate proceeding on Monday, according to The Messenger.

It’s unclear whether the judge’s ruling would be in effect for the duration of any trial.

Local authorities did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Also Monday, Atlanta prosecutors accidentally revealed a potential 13-count indictment against Trump, 77, after the two-page filing was briefly posted to the Fulton County court’s website.
