An attorney representing President-elect Donald Trump’s case in Georgia filed a response to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ appeal to the Georgia Supreme Court.

“President Trump has filed a compelling response in opposition to DA Fani Willis’ request that the Georgia Supreme Court review the GA Court of Appeals’ ruling disqualifying Willis. The response persuasively argues that discretionary review is legally unwarranted under the particular circumstances of this case,” attorney Steve Sadow said in a statement.
