"Georgia DA Fani Willis Urges Court to Reject Trump's Appeal in Election Subversion Case"

TL;DR
Fulton County prosecutors are urging the state Court of Appeals not to consider a judge’s ruling allowing District Attorney Fani Willis to continue prosecuting former President Donald Trump and others in an election interference case. The defense argues that Willis' romantic relationship with a former special prosecutor created a conflict of interest, but the DA's office contends that the judge properly applied the law and that the defendants failed to prove their case. The appeals court has until mid-May to decide whether to accept the case, and in the meantime, the trial judge has stated that he will continue to move the case forward.
