Mark Meadows' Appeal Denied in Georgia Election Case

The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals rejects Meadows' bid to move his case to federal court, setting the stage for a potential Supreme Court challenge.

  • Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows loses appeal to move Georgia election interference case to federal court.
  • The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously denied Meadows' request, leaving the Supreme Court as his only remaining option.
  • Meadows, indicted with Trump and others under Georgia's RICO law, sought federal court for a potentially more favorable jury pool.
  • The decision marks a significant setback in Meadows' legal strategy to claim immunity for actions taken as a federal officer.
  • Other co-defendants, including former DOJ official Jeffrey Clark, also seek to move their cases to federal court, but have so far been unsuccessful.
