TL;DR

A judge has ruled that Nathan Wade's former law partner and divorce attorney must return to the witness stand to testify about the relationship between Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and Wade in the election subversion case involving former President Donald Trump. The attorney had previously claimed attorney-client privilege but will now have to testify after the court found that the communication was not covered by privilege. The defense seeks to disqualify Willis' office and dismiss the case, alleging that her relationship with Wade began before she appointed him as special prosecutor. The case also involves allegations of financial benefits received by Willis when Wade took her on trips using money earned on the case.
