A Georgia court ruled that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis must pay Judicial Watch nearly $22,000 for violating the Open Records Act. The ruling highlights that Willis' office ignored multiple requests regarding communications with special counsel Jack Smith and the January 6 committee. Judge Robert McBurney criticized the DA's lack of a thorough search and noted the mandatory nature of the Open Records Act, emphasizing that non-compliance has consequences. Judicial Watch intends to pursue further transparency regarding alleged communications related to the January 6 events.
