The Georgia Court of Appeals abruptly canceled oral arguments over President-elect Donald Trump’s effort to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from prosecuting his racketeering case. The oral argument scheduled for Dec. 5, 2024, has been postponed indefinitely, leaving the next steps unclear.

Trump and eight co-defendants had sought to remove Willis, citing alleged conflicts of interest involving her and a special prosecutor. Earlier this year, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee denied the request, prompting Trump to appeal. The postponement has raised questions about the timing and potential impact on the case.

Chris Timmons, weighed in on the implications of the situation.

“The trial court should be able to sever the other defendants from Trump and proceed to trial,” Timmons said.

Trump faces four criminal cases, including charges related to his alleged efforts to overturn Georgia’s 2020 election results. While four co-defendants have accepted plea deals, Trump and others have pleaded not guilty.
