"Trump Georgia RICO Trial: Legal Battle Intensifies as Election Interference Case Resumes"

District Attorney Fani Willis is prepared to bring former President Donald Trump and 14 co-defendants to trial for election fraud well before the November election, despite ongoing legal battles and appeals. Defense lawyer Ashleigh Merchant, representing one of Trump's co-defendants, believes the trial will be delayed due to the lengthy appeals process and the broad nature of the case. The Georgia Court of Appeals will decide whether Willis and her office will be disqualified from the case, with potential further appeals to the Georgia Supreme Court, making it unlikely for the trial to occur before the election.
