The new filing<\/a>\u00a0aims to toss Trump\u2019s fourth and final criminal case, which accuses him of entering a months-long unlawful conspiracy to overturn\u00a0President Biden\u2019s\u00a02020 victory in Georgia. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u201cAccordingly, well before the inauguration of President Trump, this Court should inquire into its jurisdiction to continue to hear this appeal,\u201d wrote Steve Sadow, Trump\u2019s lead attorney in Georgia, in the filing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThat inquiry should result in this Court deciding that both this Court and the trial court lack jurisdiction to entertain any further criminal process against President Trump as the continued indictment and prosecution of President Trump by the State of Georgia are unconstitutional,\u201d Sadow continued. \u201cPresident Trump respectfully submits that upon reaching that decision, this Court should dismiss his appeal for lack of jurisdiction with directions to the trial court to immediately dismiss the indictment against President Trump.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Georgia case has not yet reached trial and has been raised for months as an appeals court takes up Trump\u2019s argument that Fulton County District Attorney\u00a0Fani Willis\u00a0(D) should be disqualified over her romance with a top prosecutor on the case who was forced to step aside.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trump was charged in the case alongside more than a dozen of his allies, who could still face trial even if his charges are dismissed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After securing the presidency Trump\u2019s two federal indictments were also tossed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trump’s filing comes hours after one of his co-defendants who pleaded guilty,\u00a0Kenneth Chesebro,\u00a0filed court documents\u00a0seeking to invalidate his plea deal\u00a0struck in October of last year.
