A judge on Wednesday gave former President Donald Trump and eight of his co-defendants permission to appeal the order allowing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to remain on the Georgia election interference case despite their allegations of misconduct.
The defendants could not directly appeal McAfee’s decision at this point in the case, so they had asked him to approve a “certificate of immediate review,' which would put the matter before an appeals court. The ruling gives the state Court of Appeals 45 days to decide whether to hear Trump’s appeal of McAfee’s order once the appeal is filed. The attorneys have 10 days to file the appeal.
