Georgia judge allows Trump and co-defendants to appeal Willis removal ruling

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee gave permission on Wednesday to former President Donald Trump and seven other co-defendants to appeal his decision that kept District Attorney Fani Willis on the 2020 election interference case.

“The requested motion is granted,” McAfee wrote in a brief order, which also clarified he will continue to work on other matters related to the case and that his decision doesn’t stop pretrial proceedings.
