SUMMARY: A judge denied Fulton County DA Fani Willis’s emergency motion to block two subpoenas from a Georgia State Senate committee related to her prosecution of former President Trump and co-defendants in the 2020 election interference case. The ruling came after a hearing where Willis was scheduled to testify. The judge stated that the Senate committee had not secured a court order requiring her compliance with the subpoena. The Republican-led committee aims to question Willis under oath about her personal relationship with former prosecutor Nathan Wade, who previously left the case after Willis acknowledged their relationship.

It was a ruling largely on procedural grounds.
