The district attorney for Fulton County, Georgia, responded to reports that a cyberattack targeted the county’s court system, saying that her case against former President Donald Trump and others wasn’t impacted.

The county saw a “major system outage” due to a “cybersecurity incident,” Fulton County officials said in a statement. The outage affected the court, tax, and phone systems, they said.
