Judge rejects Mark Meadows’ attempt to transfer Arizona case to federal court


Federal judge John J. Tuchi rejected former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows’ attempt to move his Arizona indictment to federal court. The case focuses on efforts to overturn Donald Trump’s 2020 electoral defeat. Meadows missed a deadline to file his request and failed to show good cause to excuse the untimeliness. He, along with Rudy Giuliani and Boris Epshteyn, were indicted by a state grand jury in Arizona alongside fake electors for their efforts to overturn Trump’s loss in the state in 2020. Meadows previously tried to move his indictment in Georgia to federal court in a similar case but was unsuccessful. He has pleaded not guilty in both cases. Meadows’ attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the judge’s decision. The ruling indicates that Meadows will proceed with the Arizona indictment in state court rather than federal court. The cases against Meadows and his associates are part of ongoing legal battles surrounding the 2020 election and efforts to overturn the results in various states.
