Willis’ sprawling racketeering and influence case against Trump, 78, and his co-defendants has been on hold since June – pending the outcome of the president-elect’s attempt to remove the Atlanta-area district attorney from the case.

Trump’s legal team has argued that Willis should be disqualified from the case over misconduct related to her romantic relationship with former special prosecutor Nathan Wade.
