Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is at the center of a growing legal conflict after a Georgia judge ruled in favor of Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog, in a lawsuit seeking access to her office’s communications with Special Counsel Jack Smith and the House January 6 Committee. Judge Robert McBurney of the Fulton County Superior Court issued a default judgment against Willis after her office failed to respond promptly to Judicial Watch’s open records request. The court ordered her to comply with Georgia’s open records laws and provide the requested documents within five business days.
