The Georgia Supreme Court has rejected Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’s attempt to challenge her disqualification in her election interference case against President Donald Trump and other defendants.

Justice Andrew Pinson led a concurring opinion on Sept. 16, stating that Willis’s appeal didn’t warrant further review by the state’s high court. Three justices joined a dissent.
