After his lawyers met with the Fulton County District Attorney's Office…
Former President Donald Trump's attorneys have agreed to pretrial release conditions in Georgia, including a $200,000 bond. Trump and his 18 co-defendants in DA Fani Willis' criminal case face multiple felonies for their allegedly illegal efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.
Trump's attorneys arrived at the Fulton County Courthouse earlier Monday. Lawyers Todd Blanche, Drew Findling and Jennifer Little negotiated with prosecutors for much of the day. Findling and Little head up the former president's legal team in Georgia.
All 19 defendants must turn themselves in before Willis' Friday deadline. Several other defendants, including pro-Trump lawyer John Eastman, worked on the terms of their bond Monday. (RELATED: Georgia State Senator Moves To Impeach DA Fani Willis Over Trump Charges)
Per CNN:
According to a new court filing on Monday, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has reached a bond agreement with one of Trump's co-defendants: conservative attorney John Eastman. Eastman's $100,000 bond order is the first to appear on the Fulton County court website.
Defendant Scott Hall, a bail bondsman, also has reached a bond agreement with Willis, according to court filings. Hall's bond was set at $10,000. As part of the order, he must report to pre-trial supervision every 30 days, and is able to do so by phone. He is also barred from communicating with the other 18 co-defendants in the case. Hall is facing a total of seven charges, including the racketeering count that's central to Willis' prosecution.
In a typical case in Fulton County when police make an arrest, the arrestee is booked into jail and must appear before a magistrate judge within 72 hours. That most likely won't be the case for the defendants in this racketeering case. Because they have already been indicted and are expected to negotiate the terms of release and bond before surrendering at the jail, they most likely won't have an initial court appearance, attorneys told CNN.
Law enforcement presence remains at an elevated level at the Fulton County court complex. Dozens of law enforcement vehicles are parked, lining the two block radius around the court as well as the government center where the 19 defendants are expected to negotiate the terms of release and bond with the district attorney's office.
The Fulton County Sheriff's Department has taken the lead on security at the Atlanta courthouse and government center. Other law enforcement agencies, including the U.S. Marshals and Atlanta P.D., have established a presence around the complex's perimeter.
