Atlanta CNN —Former President Donald Trump’s attorneys in the Georgia election subversion case are set to defend their client in a Fulton County courtroom for the first time on Friday as they try to have the charges thrown out on First Amendment grounds.
This is the first time Trump’s attorneys will appear in court in the Fulton County case, though their client won’t be with them.
Trump hasn’t yet been in the Atlanta courthouse – he previously waived his right to an arraignment hearing – though he was processed at the Fulton County jail in late August.
She used a similar legal strategy in a 2014 RICO case in Fulton County, according to a source familiar with the matter.
Despite his mounting legal debt and the fact that he is almost 80, sources close to Giuliani said he intends to fight the Georgia case.
