Former President Donald Trump has called on the Georgia Court of Appeals to reject Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' attempt to dismiss his appeal regarding her disqualification from his election interference case in Georgia. Trump's attorneys described Willis' effort as a "desperate bid to avoid disqualification," urging the court to let the issue proceed, according to ABC News.
This move follows Willis' motion last week asking the appeals court to dismiss Trump's appeal of a lower court's decision that allowed her to remain on the case. Trump and 18 others were indicted last August on charges related to efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia. Four defendants have since taken plea deals, agreeing to testify against others.
