An Arizona appeals court will not hear Attorney General Kris Mayes' request to reverse a decision sending her criminal case against electors for Donald Trump back to square one, another blow to the prosecution that alleges election interference nearly five years ago.
The Court of Appeals said on Sept. 22 it would not accept Mayes' appeal of a Maricopa County judge's May order sending the high-profile case back to a grand jury . The appeals court's order cites the jurists' discretion to take, or reject, cases, and is signed by Presiding Judge Kent Cattani. Judges Daniel Kiley and Andrew Jacobs also considered the case.
