Former Trump campaign lawyer fails to invalidate guilty plea in Georgia election case

Judge Scott McAfee has denied an effort by one of Donald Trump's former lawyers to withdraw his guilty plea.

After Trump won the 2024 election, Ken Chesebro sought to "invalidate" his plea agreement with the court. According to his filing, Chesebro said that it should "constitutionally void on similar grounds and its continued imposition a violation of Due Process."

However, on Friday, the judge rejected the bid, calling it “procedurally defective in more ways than one.”
