Trump and co-defendants seek to appeal Fani Willis disqualification

Former President Donald Trump and seven co-defendants requested on Monday that a judge allow them to appeal the decision not to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from their election interference case in Georgia.

The co-defendants, who include Trump’s former chief of staff Mark Meadows and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, asked Judge Scott McAfee to grant them a “certificate of immediate review,” according to a court filing. If granted, the certificate would allow them to file an appeal to the decision McAfee made last week.
