Earlier this month, the Georgia Supreme Court unanimously rejected a similar motion.A separate motion, filed by Trump's team to the Georgia Superior Court, will be the subject of an upcoming hearing on August 10. "Perplexingly, prematurely, and with the standard pugnacity, Trump has filed not one but two mandamus actions against the District Attorney and this Court," he wrote.
