Allowing defendants to appeal immediately

Having Fani and Atlanta DA office removed will be decided outside of his authority.

The right thing to do would’ve been for him to disqualify them immediately, but he sees political implications in this, and was ready to wash his hands.

Will be interesting to see what Fannie does at this point

It’s very likely that an appellate judge is going to remove her regardless and also she is staring down the state legislator that is going to be coming for her as well

She has no more air cover now that McAfee has removed himself so again will be interesting to see what she does

It’s funny some thought the judge was a good guy. He’s a clown even bigger one for allowing the circus.

A gutless coward. Hoping someone else takes the blame and he can go back to bbq at the country club.

He should have recused. He used to work for Fani.

It just has the appearance of giving her an out. And she took it. Nothing in the Trump case was improved by his ruling, for either side. All he did was kick the can down the road, and protect Fanis job.

For now

Let me get this straight-

Trump and the other defendant's lawyers made a motion to the court.

The judge grants the motion.

MAGA still mad and judge is cuck.

Am I following along so far?

Do we know whether the appellate court must review the matter or, instead, has the discretion to accept or reject review?

I can’t believe I’m about to say this. But . . . I don’t necessarily think he made the wrong decision.

The only thing that could have created the conflict affecting the actual case is Fani fricking her boyfriend; and that only created an appearance of impropriety. There’s no evidence that it prejudiced the accused (although I would say that the church speech was the closest Team Trump got).

Probably more appropriate to have her dealt with by state ethics or even criminal prosecution by the Ga Atty General , which I think is basically what he suggested. For all we know, he’s reported her to the Ga Bar, which is what a judge is otherwise ordered to do.

The immediate appeal pushes back the trial date, also good.

Further in listening to the arguments, whether the appearance of impropriety was enough was an unsettled question, that an appeal court should be addressing instead.

If you’re Fani or any of her roving band of sycophants, especially that gay dude that handled the hearing, you still don’t want to try a case to him. To say the least, they have poisoned the tribunal.

Now that I’ve gotten that off my chest, I feel better, and I’m ready to accept my downvotes.
