Trump and Allies Appeal Decision to Keep DA Fani Willis on Election Fraud Case

The appeal seeks to overturn a judge's decision allowing Fulton County DA Fani Willis to remain on the high-profile election fraud case against former President Donald Trump and 14 others.

  • Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis faces an appeal after a judge ruled she could stay on the election fraud case against Donald Trump, provided special prosecutor Nathan Wade stepped down.
  • Trump and seven other defendants have filed an emergency appeal, seeking to not only remove Willis but also to dismiss the charges altogether.
  • Legal experts are divided on whether the appeal will delay the trial, which has yet to be scheduled, but agree its outcome could significantly impact the upcoming election.
  • The case continues despite the appeal, with charges against Trump and others for allegedly conspiring to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia still intact.
  • The appeal process could potentially halt trial preparations for months, further complicating the case's timeline.
