Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is standing firm against the latest attempt by former President Donald Trump and his co-defendants to disqualify her entire office from prosecuting the election subversion case in Georgia. Willis has filed a court document asking the Georgia Court of Appeals to uphold the ruling that allowed her to remain on the case after her top prosecutor, Nathan Wade, resigned following a judge's decision.
Willis argued that there was no conflict of interest and that her comments about race playing a role in criticism of her office did not amount to misconduct requiring disqualification. The district attorney's office emphasized that there was no evidence of calculated pre-trial misconduct to prejudice the defendants.
