A federal judge decided on Monday to move the arraignment for former FBI Director James Comey up one day this week because of security concerns at the courthouse in Alexandria, Virginia.
Comey was previously scheduled to appear at his arraignment on Thursday.
“Because there are multiple previously-scheduled matters that are expected to draw large numbers of people to the courthouse at the same time as the arraignment, and because it is necessary to ensure the security of the Court, the parties, and the public, it is hereby ORDERED that Defendant is summoned to appear for arraignment before this Court on Wednesday, October 8, 2025, at 10:00 a.m.,” U.S. District Judge Michael Nachmanoff wrote.

It remains unclear what other court cases are expected to draw large crowds on Thursday.

Last month, Comey was indicted by a federal grand jury on two felony counts for obstructing a congressional proceeding and making a false statement to Congress.
