Georgia GOP Sen. Shawn Still, who was accused of being one of Donald Trump's "fake" electors and is one of the former president's co-defendants in the Georgia state election subversion criminal case, was granted a three-month stay this Thursday, The Messenger reported.
From The Messenger: "The proceedings to 'all aspects of the case' in Georgia will be halted for him until April 18, 2024, because Still is a member of the General Assembly, serving as a state senator. Other 'provisions, including initial reciprocal discovery obligations, remain in place,' the court document stated."

The order doesn't explain much about the decision or ruling.
"As a current member of the General Assembly, the Defendant is automatically entitled to a continuance and stay from 'all aspects of the case,'" the order says. "The Defendant’s requests for a continuance of the motions deadline are therefore GRANTED."
