NEW: Judge gives Fulton County DA Fani Willis an extra two weeks to respond to Donald Trump's motion to essentially shut down any prosecution of post-2020 election interference after a fake elector joined the motion last week.

Combined response now due by May 15. #gapol

Last month, Trump's Georgia attorneys filed a sweeping motion seeking to:

-quash the semi-public special purpose grand jury final report
-prevent *any* prosecutors from using *any* evidence gathered by SPGJ
-disqualify Fulton DA from prosecution

That motion was joined last week by Cathy Latham, who was both a fake elector and involved with a scheme that led to unauthorized access to voting equipment in Coffee County.

Latham is one of 10 GOP electors that were until recently repped by the same attorney, and DA Fani Willis is seeking to disqualify that attorney based on *very* recent interviews where some allegedly accused a fellow elector of breaking state law.

All of this legal posturing about what can/can't be used and who can/can't be prosecuted comes as Fulton DA's office says final charging decisions for Trump and his allies' failed efforts to overturn the 2020 election will come mid-July at the earliest.
