DOJ Asks Judge Eleanor Ross to Recuse Herself from Georgia Election Case
The Department of Justice requested U.S. District Court Judge Eleanor Ross recuse herself from a case involving election records, citing media reports that she was disciplined for attending a victory party in May 2024 for Fulton County DA Fani Willis. The DOJ argues this creates an appearance of bias given the context of the ongoing prosecution against former President Donald Trump.
