Fani Willis Appeals Dismissal of Trump Charges in Georgia Case
The Fulton County DA seeks to reinstate charges dismissed for lack of detail, as Trump and co-defendants challenge her role in the case.
- Fulton County DA Fani Willis has appealed to a Georgia court to reinstate six charges against Donald Trump and others, focusing on alleged solicitation of Georgia officials to violate their oaths.
- Judge Scott McAfee dismissed these charges in March, citing insufficient detail about the underlying crimes allegedly solicited.
- The charges include Trump's call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, where he requested to 'find' enough votes to overturn the 2020 election results.
- Willis argues the indictment provided enough detail for defendants to prepare their defense, countering the judge's earlier ruling.
- The case remains paused as the Georgia appeals court considers motions to disqualify Willis, with arguments expected in December.
