- District Attorney Fani Willis’ office has moved to intervene and is challenging the law’s constitutionality on separation-of-powers and due-process grounds, citing potential burdens on taxpayers.
- The prosecution was dismissed on Nov. 26, 2025 after Willis was removed for an appearance of impropriety tied to her relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade and successor prosecutor Pete Skandalakis declined to proceed.
- Co-defendants including John Eastman and Robert Cheeley have also filed fee claims, and Fulton County’s commission chair estimates total payouts could reach $10 million to $15 million.
