Donald Trump Wants To Move His Georgia State Trial Case To Federal Court

Former President Donald Trump and 18 other defendants will try to appear in separate trials. Defendants will also try to get out of state court and into federal court. This would allow the defendants to have an easier jury trial. It also means that the defendants can rely on their government positions to help them out on the trial. Donald Trump, most notably, is trying to get into federal court, and he might succeed. He has time to get into federal court, and the deadline to apply is a month from now. The reason why Trump wants to apply to federal court is because it would allow him to change to a state jury trial. This means that the jury would not come exclusively from the county where the indictment was filed. It would make the trial much harder for Fani Willis and her team. The jury would most likely come from suburban parts of the state. Fulton County is mostly composed of Democratic voters, and if the jury came from Fulton County, then Donald Trump would have a higher chance of losing the case. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/26/us/trump-georgia-trial.html" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">About 3/4ths of the population in Fulton County</a> voted for President Joe Biden in 2020. If the jury came from the general state, then he would have a better chance of winning. In federal court, it would take one not-guilty vote from the jury for Donald Trump to win the case.
