Former President Trump's legal team has filed a reply brief to the Georgia Court of Appeals in his case to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
Former President Trump's legal team has filed a reply brief to the Georgia Court of Appeals in his case to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. 'President Trump’s legal team has filed a reply brief in the Georgia Court of Appeals persuasively rebutting the State’s arguments,' Steve Sadow, counsel for Trump, said in a statement.
Willis filed a motion to dismiss the appeal in June, saying the lower court found there was not sufficient evidence to support their claims that Willis has a conflict of interest, and claiming there is 'no basis' to appeal Fulton Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee's March ruling allowing Willis to stay on the case. Trump's lawyer called the motion a 'last ditch effort to stop any appellate review of misconduct.
Judge Scott McAfee in March dismissed six of the charges and said the state failed to allege sufficient detail for six counts of 'solicitation of violation of oath by public officer.' In February, Michael Roman, a GOP operative and co-defendant in the case, dropped bombshell accusations that Willis had an 'improper' affair with Wade, whom she hired to help prosecute the case in November 2021.
After evidentiary hearings in February, McAfee ordered that Wade be removed in order to keep Willis from disqualification in the Trump election interference case. 'he established record now highlights a significant appearance of impropriety that infects the current structure of the prosecution team – an appearance that must be removed through the State’s selection of one of two options,' he wrote, adding that Willis and her whole office can choose to step aside, or Wade can withdraw from the case. Wade subsequently resigned from his post as special prosecutor.
