TL;DR Summary

The judge overseeing the Georgia election interference case involving former President Donald Trump has stated that misconduct allegations against Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis could potentially result in her disqualification, and a hearing on the matter will proceed as scheduled. Willis and prosecutor Nathan Wade, who are accused of engaging in a personal relationship, have been subpoenaed to testify by Trump co-defendant Michael Roman. The judge has indicated that testimony from some witnesses, including Willis, may be permitted, and declined to issue a final ruling on the issue, deferring it until Thursday's hearing. Willis has denied any financial conflict of interest and sought to quash the subpoenas, while Trump and others have pleaded not guilty to charges related to alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.
