One of two people who filed paperwork to run against the judge presiding over former President Donald Trump's 2020 Georgia election interference case has been disqualified but says she'll appeal that decision.

Judge Scott McAfee addresses the lawyers during a hearing on charges against former President Donald Trump in the Georgia election interference case on Thursday, March 28, 2024 in Atlanta. Lawyers for Trump argued in a court filing that the charges against him in the Georgia election interference case seek to criminalize political speech and advocacy conduct that is protected by the First Amendment.

Johnson’s campaign website says she has experience as both a prosecutor and a defense attorney and has a background in civil and criminal law.Rudy Giuliani can remain in Florida condo, despite judge’s concern with his spending habitsGeorgia law allows any person who is eligible to vote for a candidate to challenge the candidate’s qualifications by filing a complaint with the secretary of state’s office within two weeks of the qualification deadline.

Walker’s initial decision says Johnson did not appear at the hearing. Notification was sent to Johnson’s home address and to her email address, and a second email was sent to her when she didn’t appear, but no response was received, the judge wrote. Derby said Johnson was never served notification of the hearing.
