Former President Donald Trump’s legal team is making a last-minute effort to block an investigation into whether he and his allies violated the law by attempting to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia. They are seeking to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani T. Willis and her office from further probing the case. A Fulton County Superior Court judge recused the entire judicial bench in Fulton County from hearing Trump’s motion and reassigned the case to a judge outside the district. Trump’s attorneys accuse Willis of using the investigation for fundraising purposes in her reelection campaign, which they believe disqualifies her from the case. The legal battle comes after the Georgia Supreme Court rejected Trump’s petition to disqualify Willis and quash the findings of the special grand jury. Willis has indicated that she could pursue indictments in the coming weeks.
