Mark Meadows' Request to Move Georgia Election Subversion Case to Federal Court Denied

Judge Rules Against Trump Ally

Case to Remain in State Court

A federal appeals court has rejected former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows' attempt to move his Georgia election interference criminal case to federal court.

The court ruled that the case should remain in state court, where it was originally filed by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.

Meadows is accused of conspiring to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election in Georgia. He faces charges of racketeering, solicitation of election fraud, and making false statements to state investigators.

Meadows argued that his case should be moved to federal court because it involves issues of federal law. However, the appeals court disagreed, ruling that the state court is the appropriate venue for the case.

The ruling is a setback for Meadows, who has been trying to avoid prosecution in state court. He is one of several Trump allies who have been charged with election interference in Georgia.
