Fani Willis lost her bid to stay on Trump’s Georgia election case, amid ongoing legal battles involving the former president.
A Georgia prosecutor has filed to end the criminal case against Donald Trump and his co-defendants, citing jurisdictional issues and asserting that questioning election results is legal. The move follows a court decision disqualifying Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from prosecuting the case. Trump and allies face ongoing legal challenges related to the 2020 election interference.
A Georgia court dismissed charges against Donald Trump and 14 co-defendants after a prosecutor declined to pursue the case, citing jurisdictional issues and the impracticality of prosecuting a sitting president. This marks the end of the last major criminal effort related to Trump's 2020 election interference, with the case now effectively over.
