Fani Willis is fighting back after a Georgia Appeals court booted her from the Trump RICO case.
As reported earlier, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and her entire office were disqualified from prosecuting Trump in their lawfare RICO case.
The appeals court did not throw out the charges, however, Fani Willis and her office have “no authority to proceed.”
The Georgia Appeals Court disqualified Fani Willis because of an appearance of impropriety.
Fani Willis asked the Georgia Supreme Court to put her back on the case ahead of Trump’s inauguration.
The Georgia Supreme Court did not need to take up Fani Willis’ appeal.
Even if the Georgia Supreme Court sides with Fani Willis, Trump will be in office as of next Monday at noon.
However, there are still at least 14 other co-defendants on this case who may have to continue to fight Fani Willis.
Fox 5 Atlanta reported:
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has asked Georgia’s highest court to review a lower appeals court’s ruling that removed her from the Georgia election interference case against President-elect Donald Trump and others.
In December, the Georgia Court of Appeals ruled that Willis and her office could not continue to prosecute the case because of an “appearance of impropriety” created by a romantic relationship she had with special prosecutor Nathan Wade, whom she had hired to lead the case. In a petition filed late Wednesday, Willis asked the Georgia Supreme Court to review and reverse that decision.
Willis’ filing argues that the 2-1 ruling “overreached the Court of Appeals’ authority,” creating a new standard for disqualification of a prosecutor and disregarding decades of precedent.
