ATLANTA — Lawyers for former President Donald Trump are asking Georgia’s highest court to prevent the district attorney who has been investigating his actions in the wake of the 2020 election from prosecuting him and to throw out a special grand jury report that is part of the inquiry.

A spokesperson for Willis declined to comment. McBurney did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
“Even in an extraordinarily novel case of national significance, one would expect matters to take their normal procedural course within a reasonable time,” the filings say. “But nothing about these processes have been normal or reasonable. And the all-but-unavoidable conclusion is that the anomalies below are because Petitioner is President Donald J. Trump.”

Smith, in rejecting a Trump bid to delay the documents case, told the judge he wants to 'start the process sooner rather than later,' which is surely an unwelcome sentiment from Trump's perspective.
