Dec 14 is the electors vote but that vote is not certified until Jan 6. Presumably SCOTUS could intervene to invalidate the electors, although I don’t know of examples. Also there is an opportunity for congress members to raise objection prior to certification of the vote on Jan 6.
I think Trump’s best bet is to get a ruling by or before Dec 14th. SCOTUS might demand a review process of ballots with meaningful Republican involvement; or simply invalidate the vote, putting the selection of electors in the hands of the state legislatures (where it technically resides anyway).
