Georgia Court Delays Trump Appeal in Election Case

The Georgia Court of Appeals has indefinitely postponed oral arguments in a criminal case against President-elect Donald Trump, who is charged with conspiring to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia. This decision halts proceedings aimed at removing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the case. The delay is part of a broader trend, as all four of Trump's criminal cases have faced setbacks following his re-election. Legal experts suggest that Trump's recent electoral victory may further complicate ongoing legal challenges.

Trump's Georgia Appeal Hearing Scheduled for October

The Georgia Court of Appeals has tentatively scheduled an Oct. 4 hearing for former President Donald Trump's appeal to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the case alleging efforts to overturn Georgia's 2020 election results. This follows a decision by Judge Scott McAfee allowing Willis to continue prosecuting the case despite claims of misconduct due to a personal relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade. The appeal delays the trial's start, with no date set.

Fulton DA Appeals Dismissal of Six Charges in Trump Election Case

The Fulton County DA's office is appealing a judge's dismissal of six counts from the election interference indictment against Trump and others, arguing the charges were sufficiently detailed. This cross appeal follows a ruling allowing DA Fani Willis to stay on the case, which is likely to delay the trial until after the November presidential election.

"Fani Willis Stands Firm Against Trump's Attempt to Remove Her from Georgia Election Subversion Case"

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is resisting attempts by Donald Trump and his co-defendants to disqualify her office from prosecuting the Georgia election subversion case, arguing that there was no conflict of interest and no misconduct. The appeals court is considering the request to review the initial ruling that allowed Willis to remain on the case, while Trump's legal team is also seeking to have the indictment tossed on First Amendment grounds. Willis plans to continue with the prosecution, aiming to put Trump and his co-defendants on trial before the November presidential election.

"Georgia Judge Grants Trump Appeal in Fani Willis Case"

Judge Scott McAfee granted former President Donald Trump and co-defendants a certificate of immediate review, allowing them to seek appeal of an order denying disqualification of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from their election interference case. The case involves 41-count indictment of trying to overturn Trump's 2020 election loss in Georgia. Trump's legal team appealed McAfee's decision, and if the Georgia Court of Appeals takes up the case, it could cause a substantial delay as prosecutors aim to go to trial and seek a verdict before the 2024 election.
