Georgia prosecutor asks appeals court to reinstate 6 tossed charges in Trump case
CBSN
Six dismissed charges accusing former President Donald Trump and five others of illegally soliciting Georgia officials to violate their oaths of office should be reinstated, Georgia prosecutors told an appeals court.
In a brief for the state's Court of Appeals, lawyers for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis said a judge "erred" when he dismissed the charges in March.
The charges, which were among a total of 41 filed against Trump and 18 others in 2023, accuse six of the defendants of trying to coerce state officials into helping overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. Trump himself faced 13 counts in the indictment and pleaded not guilty. He is named in three of the six charges that Willis is seeking to have reinstated.
