A Georgia prosecutor opposes an emergency motion by Mark Meadows that seeks to prevent the arrest of the former chief of staff to former President Donald Trump in Georgia, where President Trump, Mr. Meadows, and others face charges for attempts to contest the results of the 2020 presidential election.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, in a court filing on Aug. 23, called the motion “baseless and in direct contravention with the requirements of the law.”
