The British newspaper “The Guardian” reported that a number of law firms representing US President Donald Trump announced their withdrawal from representation in Pennsylvania, and the withdrawal of appeals against the results of state elections that showed the victory of his rival, Joe Biden, due to the “futility of appeals”, in his view. .
The newspaper said that the “Porter Wright Morris Law Firm,” which is leading Trump’s campaign to challenge the results of the Pennsylvania presidential election, abruptly withdrew its lawsuit on behalf of the campaign.
The move followed a similar move by an Arizona law firm representing the Republican Party, which questioned the results from that state.
An attorney for the Jones Day law firm, who has been a Trump campaign representative for more than four years, told colleagues during a “video call” that the office would not be involved in additional lawsuits in this election.
Jones Day, one of the largest American law firms, which was an advisor to Trump’s campaigns during the years 2016 and 2020, and during the Trump presidency, announced about 20 lawsuits related to Trump, his campaign or the Republican Party, his withdrawal from the demands to challenge the nullity of the US elections.
Trump’s attorneys have also raised concerns that the challenges call into question the integrity of the democratic process.
According to the British newspaper “The Guardian”, the decision of the office of “Porter Wright” was remarkable, to withdraw the lawsuit in Pennsylvania within days of its presentation.
The Trump campaign had pledged to move forward to challenge the results of the presidential election, which showed the victory of Democratic candidate Joe Biden and his deputy, Kamala Harris, despite the decision by most of the world to recognize Biden. .
And the US media reported that a campaign official had summoned his staff to their Virginia headquarters for a meeting led by campaign manager Bill Stephen and his legal adviser Justin Clark to discuss next steps.
However, several federal courts rejected some of the lawsuits brought by the Trump campaign in several states, because they did not provide evidence of an alleged fraud that would change the election results.
Despite this, a senior Trump campaign adviser, Jason Miller, told the British newspaper “The Guardian” that “we are ready to follow all legal means, all counting methods.”
He added, “We will continue to uncover and investigate fraud or misrepresentation of the law to ensure that the American people have full confidence in these elections,” according to Al Ain News.
