Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has asked an appeals court not to consider former President Donald Trump’s latest effort to have her removed from his racketeering (RICO) and election subversion case.

On Monday, the district attorney filed a 19-page reply brief asking the Georgia Court of Appeals to turn down a defense effort seeking a review of the trial court judge’s recent decision to keep her in charge.

“There being no error by the trial court, the present application merely reflects the applicants’ dissatisfaction with the trial court’s proper application of well-established law to the facts,” the state’s filing reads. “Because the applicants have wholly failed to carry their burden of persuasion, this Court should decline interlocutory review.”
