South Carolina SC agrees to hear Mark Meadows effort to block a subpoena from Georgia DA Willis [View all]

JUST IN: The South Carolina Supreme Court has agreed to expedite consideration of Mark Meadows effort to block a subpoena from Fulton County, Ga. prosecutors.


Meadows, Flynn appeals complicate timeline for concluding Trump grand jury

Three of the most prominent witnesses who have yet to testify before the Fulton County special grand jury investigating potential criminal meddling in Georgia’s 2020 election appealed judges’ orders this week directing them to appear in Atlanta.

The moves from former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, ex-National Security Advisor Michael Flynn and onetime House Speaker Newt Gingrich threaten to push back the timeline for Fulton District Attorney Fani Willis, who is advising the grand jury and hoping to wrap up its work by the end of the calendar year.

On Thursday, the Virginia Court of Appeals granted Gingrich a stay on a lower court’s ruling that directed him to testify before the grand jury on Nov. 29. That means Gingrich, the former Georgia congressman who now lives in McLean, Va., won’t need to appear until after his appeal is resolved.

A day earlier, Meadows’ lawyer filed paperwork appealing an order signed by a South Carolina judge earlier this month that compelled him to appear at the Fulton courthouse on Nov. 30.

That followed a notice of appeal from Flynn’s attorney in Florida the same day that a Sarasota County Circuit judge ruled the retired lieutenant general was a “necessary” and “material” witness to the Fulton probe and must appear on Nov. 22.
