The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld a district judge's ruling that former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows must face state election interference charges in state court. Meadows had sought to have his case moved to a federal venue, citing a federal law, but Chief Judge William Pryor ruled that the statute does not apply to former officers. The charges against Meadows stem from a lawsuit filed by the Georgia Democratic Party in August, and he has denied the allegations. It is unclear when the case will proceed in state court.
