Judge gives more time to name new prosecutor in Trump’s Georgia election case

Source: The Hill

“The Georgia agency that recently took over the 2020 election interference criminal case against President Trump and his allies won an extension Thursday to name a prosecutor to oversee the case. Judge Scott McAfee gave the Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council (PAC) until Nov. 14 to provide a name, a delay from his original two-week deadline but not as far as PAC wanted. The agency took over after Georgia’s courts disqualified Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) from bringing Trump to trial after her romantic relationship with a prosecutor she hired to work on the case came to light. PAC, which is tasked with supporting prosecutors and law enforcement across Georgia, is responsible for finding a substitute when a district attorney’s office has a conflict of interest.” (10/09/25)
