Trump's legal team appealing Fani Willis being allowed to remain on his Georgia election interference case might not delay the trial, according to an expert.
The decision by the Georgia Court of Appeals to review a lower-court ruling that allowed District Attorney Fani Willis to remain on Donald Trump's election interference case in the state might not delay the trial itself, according to one legal expert.In March, presiding Judge Scott McAfee concluded Willis had a 'tremendous lapse of judgment' concerning her relationship with prosecutor Nathan Wade, but said she could remain on the case provided Wade stepped down, which he then did.
He wrote: 'Unless Trump requests and gets a stay, the Georgia appeals court considering his effort to disqualify DA Fani Willis might not delay matters.'Goodman then quoted a filing from Judge McAfee in March in which he granted Trump's team the right to appeal his ruling on Willis and said the court would continue examining pretrial motions regardless of whether this was approved.
