"Legal Standard at Center of Trump-Willis Disqualification Hearing"

Attorneys presented arguments on whether Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis should be disqualified from prosecuting Donald Trump and his codefendants due to a conflict of interest stemming from a romantic relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade. The judge is expected to make a decision by March 15, with potential political implications. Both sides seek to introduce additional evidence, and if Willis remains, the case against Trump may proceed, pending U.S. Supreme Court decisions. If Willis is disqualified, the case's future and the fate of the defendants remain uncertain.
