Judge Orders Fani Willis to Release Communications in Trump Case Investigation

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was found in violation of Georgia's open records laws by a court, which ordered her to provide documents related to her communications with special counsel Jack Smith and the House committee investigating the January 6 attack. The lawsuit, filed by Judicial Watch, accused Willis of falsely claiming no such records existed. The court granted a default judgment against Willis, requiring her to produce the documents within five days or explain their absence. Judicial Watch also seeks attorney fees, with a hearing set for December 20.
