Meadows Petitions for Full Appeals Court Review, Adds Former Solicitor General to Legal Team

The move follows a unanimous ruling against his bid to move his Georgia election interference charges to federal court. If successful, Meadows could potentially invoke federal immunity, leading to the dismissal of his charges.

Mark Meadows, former Trump White House chief of staff, has petitioned for a rehearing en banc, requesting the full 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to review his case. This follows a unanimous ruling against his bid to move his Georgia election interference charges to federal court.
Meadows has added former U.S. Solicitor General Paul Clement to his legal team. Clement has extensive experience arguing cases before the Supreme Court.
The charges against Meadows stem from his alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia while serving as Trump's chief of staff.
If successful in moving his case to federal court, Meadows could potentially invoke federal immunity, which could lead to the dismissal of his charges.
The decision of the 11th Circuit panel was notable for being the first in 190 years to deny a federal forum to federal officers sued after they left office.
