Georgia Appeals Court Removes DA Fani Willis From Trump Case

A Georgia appeals court disqualified Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from prosecuting President-elect Donald Trump in his election interference case on Thursday.

The court did not go further by throwing out Trump’s indictment altogether, but Willis and the assistant DAs working in her office now have “no authority to proceed,” according to the ruling, which was reported by Fox News.

It’s the latest in a string of legal bad news for Willis. In September, a Georgia judge ruled against her in a case concerning an open records lawsuit.

Fulton County Judge Rachel Krause denied a request to dismiss a lawsuit regarding open records aimed at Willis and her office but she did grant a motion that exempts Willis from being personally named in the lawsuit, allowing her to remain involved in her official capacity as district attorney.

The lawsuit stems from the Fulton County election interference investigation and involves attorney Ashleigh Merchant, who represents co-defendant Michael Roman in the case against former President Donald Trump and his associates.

The Georgia Open Records Act required the district attorney’s office to provide documents on time, according to Merchant, who brought the legal action.
