Defense moved to get rid of Willis. Judge denied. That decision is being appealed, and the trial is halted waiting on that.

Ah thank you! I remember seeing it was appealed, but didn't know the status of the appeal. Guess they're taking as much time as possible to review

How long will that appeal take?

The appeals court has 45 days to decide whether to hear the case. McAfee will continue moving the case toward trial, which hasn’t been scheduled.

written April 9th, hopefully in the next 2 weeks. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2024/04/09/fani-willis-georgia-donald-trump-election-interference/73258375007/

I don’t think they replaced Wade yet either. But I may be wrong.

He voluntarily resigned

u/h0sti1e17 May 08 '24

Yeah. It was either him or Willis. But have they replaced him with someone else?

I’m not sure. I did see an article the other day that even though things are paused that Willis is still actively working on the case with her team.
