A South Carolina judge ruled Wednesday that former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows must testify before a special grand jury in Georgia investigating possible interference in the 2020 presidential election. Meadows, who lives in South Carolina, has tried to avoid testifying before the grand jury probe into possible election interference by then-President Donald Trump and his allies. A spokesperson for Willis said Meadows won’t appear before the grand jury until sometime after the midterm elections next month, as the investigation is in a “quiet period” around then. A federal appeals court ruled last week that Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., also must testify before the Fulton County grand jury. Trump's former White House counsel Pat Cipollone and former personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani have also testified before the grand jury.

Oct 26 (Reuters) - Mark Meadows, Donald Trump's former White House chief of staff, was ordered by a South Carolina judge on Wednesday to testify in a Georgia criminal probe investigating whether the former president and his allies broke the law by trying to overturn the 2020 election, according to media reports. The court hearing took place in Pickens County, South Carolina, where Meadows resides, because the Fulton County grand jury technically needs a local judge to approve witness subpoenas for out-of-state residents. Meadows' lawyer, James Bannister, had argued that the grand jury is civil in nature, not criminal, and thus cannot compel his client's testimony. The grand jury probe has already ensnared a number of inner-circle Trump allies, including his personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, who testified before the grand jury in August and has been informed he is a target of the investigation. The petition seeking Meadows' testimony noted that in addition to the Raffensperger call, he also attended a White House meeting in December 2020 with members of Congress to discuss allegations of voter fraud.

A judge has ordered Mark Meadows , former President Donald Trump’s final chief of staff, to testify before a special grand jury in Atlanta investigating efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, a spokesman for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis said. A state court judge in Pickens County, S.C., ruled that Mr. Meadows is a necessary witness in the investigation, rejecting arguments by the former Trump adviser that he isn’t required under South Carolina law to testify.

A South Carolina judge says Mark Meadows is not immune from testifying in a Georgia grand jury case. Meadows has claimed executive privilege to avoid facing Georgia DA Fani Willis' 2020 election probe. Meadows' lawyer says same defense that's shielded him from the Jan. 6 committee also applies here. Select committee chairman Bennie Thompson told reporters after the panel's last public hearing that the group formally subpoenaed Trump after getting stonewalled by dozens of his personnel. House investigators said more than 30 former Trump aides and allies, including Meadows, have pleaded the Fifth when questioned or simply refused to cooperate with the select committee to date.

☆ Former Trump aide Mark Meadows asks South Carolina judge to block Georgia grand jury subpoena in election-meddling probe
▼ + stars: | 2022-10-25 | by ( Dan Mangan | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows asked a South Carolina judge to block a subpoena demanding his testimony before a Georgia grand jury investigating possible criminal interference in the 2020 presidential election. Meadows' request Monday afternoon came hours after U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas temporarily delayed a similar subpoena that the same grand jury issued to Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. Meadows, a former Republican congressman, resides in South Carolina. Bannister said the subpoena was moot because it had required Meadows' appearance before the grand jury on Sept. 27. The grand jury in this case does not have the power to criminally charge individuals but can recommend charges.
