Mark Meadows Testifies in Georgia Election Conspiracy Case
Federal Judge Rejects Meadows' Bid to Move Case to Federal Court
Former White House Chief of Staff Denies Involvement in Conspiracy
Mark Meadows, former chief of staff to Donald Trump, testified in a federal courtroom in Georgia on Monday regarding his alleged involvement in a broad conspiracy to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. Meadows claims to have played no role in the alleged conspiracy, which includes allegations of illegal campaign contributions and voter intimidation.
A federal judge on Friday rejected Meadows' bid to have his case moved to federal court. The judge ruled that the Georgia courts had jurisdiction over the case and that Meadows had not presented sufficient grounds for the case to be moved.
The battle over whether to move the Georgia racketeering case against Trump and his allies to federal court began in earnest on Monday, with a hearing before a federal judge. The judge will decide whether the case should remain in state court or be moved to federal court, which could have significant implications for the case.
