Supreme Court Denies Mark Meadows' Appeal in Georgia Case
TL;DR Summary
The Supreme Court has declined to hear Mark Meadows' request to move his Georgia election-fraud case to federal court, leaving a lower court's decision in place. Meadows, former White House Chief of Staff under Trump, argued that his actions were part of his official duties and thus protected. The decision underscores the ongoing legal challenges faced by Trump's allies, as state cases like Georgia's are beyond the reach of presidential pardons. The Georgia case, involving Trump and 18 others, remains delayed due to unrelated legal disputes.
