"Georgia Judge Grants Trump Appeal in Fani Willis Disqualification Case"

A Georgia judge has allowed former President Trump and his co-defendants to appeal the ruling that declined to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis due to her romantic relationship with a top prosecutor overseeing the election interference case. They are expected to ask the Georgia Court of Appeals to take up the disqualification battle before the case goes to trial. The defense is optimistic that appellate review will lead to the case being dismissed and the DA being disqualified, while the district attorney's office has rejected the notion of an actual conflict of interest.
