Fani Willis Forced To Release All Communications With Jack Smith, J6 Committee

[excalibur]

We shall get to see what they were up to. Conspiracy comes to mind. Conspiring against Donald Trump, and against others.

Heck, Biden blasted his own DOJ in his pardon message for his son, Hunter.

The Fulton County Superior Court has ruled against District Attorney Fani Willis, ordering her to disclose communications with Special Counsel Jack Smith and the House January 6 Committee. The decision, announced on Tuesday, follows a lawsuit brought by Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, which accused Willis of violating Georgia’s Open Records Act.

The court’s order grants Judicial Watch’s motion for default judgment, directing Willis to search for and release any non-exempt records within five business days. Additionally, the court awarded attorneys’ fees to Judicial Watch, citing Willis’s failure to meet legal requirements for responding to the records request.

The lawsuit stems from a request made by Judicial Watch in August 2023 for all documents and communications between Willis, her office, and Special Counsel Jack Smith, as well as with the House January 6 Committee. Initially, Willis’s office claimed no such records existed. Judicial Watch countered with legal action in March 2024, asserting that Willis’s office failed to produce documents it likely possessed.

Court records reveal that the case encountered procedural hiccups, including confusion over the filing of service documents. Willis’s legal team argued that delays in the court’s electronic docket system caused her office to miss deadlines. However, the court determined that these technical issues did not excuse Willis from her legal obligations.

Judge Robert McBurney found Willis in default, citing her failure to respond in a timely manner. The ruling noted that Willis could have moved to address the default or presented a defense but did neither. Instead, her office argued procedural points that the court ultimately dismissed.

“Plaintiff has established that Defendant violated the Open Records Act by failing to either turn over responsive records or notify Plaintiff of her decision to withhold some or all such records,” the court stated in its order.

The judgment compels Willis to conduct a “diligent search” for records related to Judicial Watch’s request. If any materials are withheld, the court mandates an explanation under Georgia’s open records laws. A hearing on attorneys’ fees is scheduled for December 20.

The ruling arrives at a time of heightened scrutiny on Willis, who leads the high-profile case against former President and President-elect Donald Trump, and others tied to efforts to overturn Georgia’s 2020 election results.

“Fani Willis is something else,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “We’ve been doing this work for 30 years, and this is the first time in our experience a government official has been found in default for not showing up in court to answer an open records lawsuit.”

I read (somewhere) that Putin has expressed concern for Trump.

I hate to agree with that rat bastard, Putin, but I agree that Trump was already in extreme danger. And it is now worse than before, imho, since what he’s planning is reflected so clearly in his selections.

I think those long ensconced in their wealth, power and lifestyles are getting pretty alarmed. I am referring to those who have engaged in manipulation for so long.

This ship is being righted. Against the will of so many of them. But this time you can see their reaction. Their fears are coming to fruition.

I think this is truly concerning. Can even the Secret Service still be trusted?

She had a legal obligation to respond and she didn't do it. That's why the court granted the DEFAULT JUDGEMENT.

She could have appeared and provided a defense, but she just blew it off. Judicial Watch identified specific communications that she had with the DOJ and J6 committee, and the court ordered her to produce those records or provide an explanation why they are missing.

Judicial Watch didn't identify anything, that's why they are fishing for information. The response from Fani Willis's office to this order is likely to be to say they don't have anything to turn over other than what has already been revealed publicly during the course of the trial. I actually watched the same thing happen in Fulton County court when one of the lawyers for the many defendants in this trial brought up the same issue to the Judge. He asked Fulton County D.A. for any correspondence they had with the white house or special counsel and they said the only thing they got from the special counsel was the same information released publicly by the Jan 6th committee on their public website that anyone can download and that was it. The judge then asked the defendants lawyer if they had any evidence that the D.A. was withholding any other correspondence, they said no and the judge told them to get back to him when that changes. So far it hasn't. I even posted that video here at the time when trial was going on last year.

False. They identified some of the communications in their complaint.

The response from Fani Willis's office to this order is likely to be to say they don't have anything to turn over other than what has already been revealed publicly during the course of the trial. I actually watched the same thing happen in Fulton County court when one of the lawyers for the many defendants in this trial brought up the same issue to the Judge. He asked Fulton County D.A. for any correspondence they had with the white house or special counsel and they said the only thing they got from the special counsel was the same information released publicly by the Jan 6th committee on their public website that anyone can download and that was it.

None of that, even if it were true, matters one bit.

Judicial Watch filed an open records request. The DA's office replied that they had no records responsive to the request.

Judicial Watch filed a suit against the DA's office, and identified records that were known to exist that were responsive to the open records request.

They served the DA's office with the complaint as required.

The DA's office filed a return service that acknowledged they received the complaint, and they had 30 days to file a response with the court.

The 30 days passed, and but they did not file a response. That put them in default. Whatever you think the response should have been does not matter. There was no response.

So Judicial Watch filed a motion for default judgement and asked for attorney's fees, and for an order that the DA's office comply with the open records request.

The court granted the plaintiff's motion, and issued a default Judgement in favor of the plaintiff.

Whatever happened in some other proceeding is irrelevant. The DA's office was required by law to respond to the complaint filed by the plaintiff, within the 30 day period. They didn't do that, so the court ruled for Judicial Watch.

When someone sues you, you have to notify the court if you are going to defend the suit. If you fail to do that, the court will issue a default judgement against you. Period.
