"Hearings are scheduled for December 12," the document says.

The court also granted the joint petition of the prosecution and the defense about the “change” of the plea of ​​the Russian woman’s plea.

It is noted that as earlier Butina in court declared full innocence, any change may indicate a partial admission of guilt.

Earlier, the protection of Butina and the prosecutor's office filed a joint request for a hearing on the deal with the Russians.

In July, Maria Butina was detained in the United States on suspicion of "working for Russia as an agent."
