BREAKING NEWS: Trump’s Appeal Hearing to Disqualify Fani Willis Scheduled for December 5, Delaying RICO Trial Until After 2024 Election


A hearing for President Trump to disqualify Fani Willis is scheduled for December 5, 2024, delaying the lawfare RICO case until after the 2024 election.

The hearing was initially tentatively scheduled for October 4.

With the hearing now set for December, the RICO case will officially be delayed until after the 2024 election.

“The Georgia Appeals Court agreed to pause proceedings in the case in June while it reviews McAfee’s ruling, and the Dec. 5 argument date means the prosecution will remain on hold into the new year. State law requires the appeals court to hand down a ruling by March 14, 2025, as the case was docketed for its August term.” CBS News reported.

In May, the Georgia Court of Appeals agreed to review President Donald Trump’s appeal to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the controversial RICO case against him.

“Upon consideration of the Application for Interlocutory Appeal, it is ordered that it be hereby GRANTED. The Appellant may file a Notice of Appeal within 10 days of the date of this order. The Clerk of Superior Court is directed to include a copy of this order in the record transmitted to the Court of Appeals,” the Court said.

As reported by CBS News:

The Georgia Court of Appeals will hear arguments Dec. 5 in a bid by former President Donald Trump and his allies to have Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and her office removed from the case involving an alleged scheme to overturn the results of Georgiaโ€™s 2020 presidential election.

The appeals court agreed in May to review a decision from Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee to allow Willis to continue prosecuting the case against Trump.

Arguments will be heard before a three-judge panel composed of Judges Trenton Brown, Todd Markle and Benjamin Land.

The former president and a group of his co-defendants had requested oral argument before the appeals court. They were tentatively set for Oct. 4

In March, Georgia Judge Scott McAfee ruled that Fani Willis would be allowed to remain on the Trump case.

However, Judge McAfee did order Nathan Wade, Fani Willis’s lover, to be removed from the case.

Wade and Willis were both accused of perjury during their testimony. Critics argue that Judge McAfee, despite the conflict of interest, did not fully enforce the law by disqualifying both individuals.

In March Judge McAfee quashed 6 counts in Fani Willis’ indictment โ€“ including 3 counts against President Trump.

The Georgia Court of Appeals’ decision to delay the oral arguments came just one day after Judge Cannon dismissed Special Counsel Jack Smith’s classified documents case against Trump.

Jack Smith’s January 6 case in Washington, D.C. is currently on hold, pending a decision from Judge Chutkan following the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on Trump’s presidential immunity claims.
