Donald Trump’s lawyers signaled they may take fresh legal action in Georgia to head off what could be the former president’s fourth indictment in five months — this time over his attempt to reverse the outcome of the 2020 election in a crucial swing state.
His legal team has dropped a suit that sought to force a Georgia state judge to rule on Trump’s request to toss out evidence gathered by an Atlanta special purpose grand jury and to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the probe. The move came three days after the judge denied the request to oust Willis.
