Georgia Appeals Court Halts Trump Election Interference Case

An appeals court in Georgia has put a pause on the election interference case involving former President Donald Trump and others. The decision comes as the court reviews a ruling by Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, which allowed District Attorney Fani Willis to continue leading the case.

The Georgia Court of Appeals' order, issued on Wednesday, blocks Judge McAfee from proceeding with pretrial motions while the appeal is under review. This development further delays the possibility of the case going to trial before the upcoming November general election, where Trump is anticipated to be the Republican nominee for president.
