Former White House Chief of Staff Meadows denied transfer of Arizona election case to federal court
2024-09-18
[JustTheNews] "The State has indicted Mr. Meadows for allegedly orchestrating and participating in an illegal electioneering scheme. Few, if any, of the State’s factual allegations even resemble the secretarial duties that Mr. Meadows maintains are the subject of the indictment," the judge ruled

Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows' request to transfer his Arizona election case to federal court has been denied.

U.S. District Judge John Tuchi’s rejected the effort to move the case in a ruling issued on Monday.

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes charged Meadows and a dozen other individuals with attempting to interfere with the 2020 election.

Meadows has argued that he was performing his official duties by assisting Trump in contesting the 2020 election results.

“Contrary to Mr. Meadows’s assertions, the State has not indicted Mr. Meadows for merely facilitating communication to and from the President or for simply staying abreast of campaign goings-on,” Tuchi, the judge, wrote in the ruling. “Instead, the State has indicted Mr. Meadows for allegedly orchestrating and participating in an illegal electioneering scheme. Few, if any, of the State’s factual allegations even resemble the secretarial duties that Mr. Meadows maintains are the subject of the indictment.”
