With equal parts derision and seriousness, a Georgia attorney representing one of the defendants in the YSL racketeering ( RICO ) trial filed a motion on Tuesday castigating the latest tactic employed by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and her top lieutenant.
The title of the defense motion sums up the current dispute:
Opposition To State’s Motion In Limine To Allow The State To Present All Relevant Evidence To The Jury And To Deny Defendant Objections To The Presentation Of Relevant Evidence On The Basis That Said Evidence Is A “Waste Of Time”
A footnote in the filing by defense attorney Doug Weinstein concedes: “Wow. That is really a mouthful.”

The prosecution’s motion is titled:
Motion In Limine To Allow The State To Present All Relevant Evidence To The Jury And To Deny Defendant Objections To The Presentation Of Relevant Evidence On The Basis That Said Evidence Is A “Waste Of Time”
