Paul Manafort and Rick Gates will have their trial on May 7, 2018. Manafort and Gates were indicted with money laundering after lobbying for a pro-Russian government of Ukraine. The two hid tens of millions of dollars through U.S. and foreign corporations, partnerships, and bank accounts. The two have plead not guilty to the charges and are currently under house arrest. According to CNN, Manafort's attorneys plan to asses the legality of the charges, claiming to prove that the search warrant was "improperly obtained."
