Former President Donald Trump and eight codefendants can seek an appeal to the order that denied the disqualification of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis in the Trump case, Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee ruled Wednesday.
On Friday, Trump filed a motion to disqualify Willis from the Georgia election interference case. McAfee ruled that Willis could remain on the Trump case if Nathan Wade, fellow prosecutor and ex-lover, is removed by Willis or voluntarily resigns. Wade resigned hours later.

This entire case hinges a phone call that was secretly and illegally recorded. The recording was edited to suit goals of all the crooked state and county "officials". And now it's about protecting all of them.
And oddly, no one seems to be making too much of an issue, so far, about Willis and her campaign money. Hmmmmmm
So, McFee is going to allow these appeals in the hopes that a higher court tosses this whole thing so he won't have to do it and risk people like Raffensber, Sterling, Fuchs and a whole host of others having to show up in his courtroom.
At the end of the day it comes to a few questions to Raffensberger and Fuchs, IMHO:
Raffensberger, did Pres Trump tell you do the thing they are alleging? NO.
Fuchs, did you illegally record and modify the recording and then leak to the Washington Post? Yes. Was the original found on your computer demostrating no such talk by the President? Yes.
Then it all falls of that office for allowing "tainted evidence" to be used.
Fire that fani!!
First, perhaps, a dismissal because of the illegally taped telephone call which is the root of the entire case.
If the current appeal is denied, which is likely given the politics involved, then expect a motion to re open the original dismissal on the basis of new evidence and a motion for reconsideration.
Possible a motion for a change of venue due to bias and jury prejudice in the Willis Church Speech.
Remove Pres. Trump from the equation.
The legal precedent is terrifying. An ex-employee Judge, ruling on a District Attorney, who used taxpayer money to funnel to a lover, who then paid kickbacks and took the DA on elaborate vacations. A DA who committed perjury during her trial, denying she had ever been to the White House; when records show she and her boyfriend visited with the VP at the White House for 5+ hours.
This same DA, who hired a Retail Attorney for $500K to prosecute a political opponent, falsified charges and conspired with the Presidental team, to remove a private citizen and deprive him of his civil rights.
They can do this same thing to any one of us, and by using Lawfare and the taxpayer funds, drive anybody into bankruptcy without penalty. Without penalty.
There is not a non-violent solution to this level of corruption. They will not stop this corruption voluntarily.
The phone call was recorded by a person sitting in FL at that moment.
It is illegal in FL to record someone on the phone without their permission.
It’s about the 75th tactical blunder that Fanny made.
And now it’s going to a court that Fanny can’t control.
As usual, media coverage of legal issues is simplified to the point of incoherence and inaccuracy that leads to many people lacking understanding of even basic legal issues, such as the difference between criminal and civil cases.
This is a little bit more complex. Because of media malpractice most people don’t understand that not all orders can be taken to the Court of Appeal, and generally appeal can only be taken from final judgments, not interim orders such as that made in this case. It looks like this is similar to CA, where a judge can certify one or more important issues for an “interlocutory” or interim appeal of the issue is of great significance so that it would be unjust or wasteful to wait until the end of the case. That appears to be what has happened here
fani prepared to be slapped
And the judge worked for as well.
Good move by Trump to request the right to appeal (which wasn’t clear at first), and for McAfee to approve it. As I’ve said on other threads, if McAfee wanted to kill this case, but have it done by someone else’s hand, he would have done exactly what he’s done so far.
In another judicial announcement, a judge ruled Butch Cassidy could continue holding up trains if he parted ways with Sundance Kid.
I’m not a lawyer but from what I’ve seen over the last few weeks I can tell they aren’t very bright. Having ssid thst, why would Trump need that dumbasses permission to appeal anything? The legal system is a joke administered by a bunch of retards.
New tag line.
See post 6. Generally, you can only appeal a final judgment, not every single order a judge issues during the life of a lawsuit. Good thing GA has the procedure that allows the judge to certify an order as immediately appealable.
Ping.
I hope DeSantis sends the Haitians to GA by the bus load
Best post of the day.
Delaying tactic, but no higher court is going to overturn McFee after his drawn out trial on the facts.
send the Haitians to sc that’s where the best bbq is...
hehehe

How much money with Trump and co-defendents spend on this distraction and not on the actual charges? Removing Willis will not make the charges go away.
