The former chief of staff is likely to appeal the decision.
A judge in South Carolina ruled Wednesday that former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows must testify in a probe by Atlanta-area prosecutors of 2020 election subversion efforts, according to a spokesperson for the prosecutors.
Jeff DiSantis, a spokesperson for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who is leading the investigation, confirmed Circuit Court Judge Edward W. Miller’s ruling, though he declined to comment further. James Bannister, who is serving as Meadows’ local attorney, told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that his client would appeal the ruling, but his firm later walked back the comments in a statement posted online saying they were still examining their options and calling it “inappropriate” to comment further until the judge issued a final written order.
Prosecutors have sought Meadows’ testimony about his involvement in efforts by former President Donald Trump and his allies to overturn the 2020 election, including Georgia’s results.
