- Trump’s lawyers are appealing a verdict allowing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to remain in the case.
- Allegations have been made regarding a romantic relationship between Willis and a prosecutor involved in the case.
- Judge McAfee ruled in favor of Willis, citing an “appearance of impropriety.”
- Trump and co-defendants are pushing for Willis’s removal from the case.
Hush Money Trial
- Trump faces charges related to falsifying business records to conceal a payment to Stormy Daniels.
- A gag order has been imposed on Trump by Justice Juan Merchan, preventing him from making certain statements.
