3 More Counts Dismissed in Trump Case Indictment in Georgia

The Fulton County District Attorney's office has dismissed three more counts in the indictment against former President Donald Trump

The charges, which included solicitation of election fraud, were part of a larger indictment handed down in May 2022. Trump is accused of pressuring Georgia officials to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

The three counts that were dismissed were: willful interference in the performance of election duties, conspiracy to commit willful interference in the performance of election duties, and attempt to commit willful interference in the performance of election duties.

The remaining nine counts against Trump include: solicitation of election fraud, attempt to commit election fraud, conspiracy to commit election fraud, racketeering, and conspiracy to commit racketeering.

Trump has denied the charges and has said that he will fight them in court.

The dismissal of the three counts is a setback for the prosecution, but it is not clear whether it will have a major impact on the case.

Legal experts say that the remaining charges are still serious and that Trump could face significant penalties if he is convicted.

The trial is scheduled to begin in September 2023.
