A federal judge appeared inclined on Monday to reject the former Trump justice department official Jeffrey Clark’s effort to transfer from state to federal court his criminal case for conspiring to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia, striking his written testimony from consideration.
The way that the hearing played out for Clark could dictate how future efforts by Donald Trump or his other co-defendants to remove their cases to federal court could play out, given how Clark’s lawyer at times put blame on the former president.
