Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr asked the state’s Supreme Court to reject Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’s appeal to regain her authority to prosecute President-elect Donald Trump for alleged attempts to overturn Georgia’s 2020 election results.

ATLANTA (AP) — A judge has ruled that the Georgia state Senate can subpoena Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis as part of a inquiry into whether she has engaged in misconduct during her prosecution of President-elect Donald Trump but is giving Willis the chance to contest whether lawmakers’ demands are overly broad.

Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr (R) encouraged the state’s top court to not take up Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’s (D) appeal of a ruling disqualifying her from criminally prosecuting President-elect Trump.

State Sen. Greg Dolezal, who represents Forsyth County in the Georgia General Assembly, applauds a recent court ruling that upholds a Senate investigative committee’s effort to subpoena Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis in connection with a case against President-elect Donald Trump.

A state appeals court has removed Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the Georgia election interference case against Donald Trump and others.

State lawmakers can subpoena Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis for information in the Georgia election interference case. A Fulton County judge ruled the state Senate can bring Willis in to testify on whether she engaged in misconduct in her prosecution of President-elect Donald Trump and his allies.

Last week, the state Court of Appeals disqualified Willis from the case, ruling that her sexual relationship with Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor she hired to lead the prosecution, constituted an appearance of impropriety.
