In the latest development in Willis' hearing, Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee's chambers notified attorneys in the case by email on Monday that certain communications Bradley had with Wade are not protected by attorney-client privilege, as he had previously argued, and called on him to testify again, according to sources speaking to ABC News.
If Bradley gives evidence claiming that Wade and Willis' relationship began earlier than they said it did, and it is found they lied under oath, it could significantly impact the case.
Law professor Anthony Michael Kreis wrote on X, formerly Twitter: "Terrance Bradley has information from things he saw that backdate the Willis-Wade relationship—could be generic impressions or damning.
"Tomorrow is going to be dramatic. We may learn a lot of new facts. It may a total dud. Somebody definitely hasn't been treating this with the utmost candor. But that's all we can probably say."
Law journalist Anna Bower said the hearing could "be the most consequential moment" in the case.
The testimony will come after Trump's team subpoenaed Wade's phone records to allegedly show he was sleeping at Willis' home in September and November 2021. Trump's lawyers hired a private investigator, Charles Mittelstadt, to investigate phone calls made between Wade and Willis.

“certain communications Bradley had with Wade are not protected by attorney-client privilege, as he had previously argued, “
Yay! Judge mentioned that possibility at the end of the last day of hearings. Bradley is so screwed, in that there’ll be a target on his back. It was interesting to watch how he measured all of his statements last time.
Fani and Wade had previously threatened Bradley about testifying, forcing him to claim attorney/client privilege, but the judge found that was overreach.
Yesterday Bradley testified about what he knew--unhindered by "privilege"--and the judge obviously heard enough to get the hearing restarted.
Sounds deadly for Fat Fanny and Boy-toy Wade.
She was elected because of her demographics and politics.
Not out of ability.
Eager to know if this will be televised. I have the popcorn, butter, and Parmesan.
The judge is up for re election and hes PETRIFIED of BIG FAT FANI and her fellow BLACK WOMEN!
Nary a word about the bogus charges brought by big fat Fani.
As did Icarus, Imperious Fani flew too close to the Sun.
Yep. I sure hope so. I have popcorn standing by.
Judge says Law partner must testify about Wade’s relationship with Willis

A judge has determined that Nathan Wade’s former law partner and divorce lawyer must tell the court what he knows about the special prosecutor’s relationship with District Attorney Fani Willis – a decision that could produce more bombshell testimony as defense attorneys seek to disqualify the DA from prosecuting the Fulton County election interference case.
Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee’s chambers notified attorneys in the case by email late Monday that certain communications Terrence Bradley had with Wade are not protected by attorney-client privilege, according to numerous people who read the email. Bradley could be compelled to testify as soon as Tuesday afternoon. McAfee’s decision followed a closed-door meeting between the judge and Bradley on Monday that lasted nearly an hour and 20 minutes.
A spokesman for Willis said the DA’s office cannot comment except in court.
Defense attorneys are seeking to disqualify the entire DA’s office because of what they have called an “improper” romantic relationship between Willis and Wade. The defense attorneys say Willis benefited financially by hiring Wade because he paid for trips they took together with money he earned from the case.
Willis and Wade have testified they split the cost of travel roughly equally. And they said their relationship began months after she hired him to oversee the case in November 2021.
Bradley’s testimony could be damning for Willis and Wade. McAfee has already heard testimony from a former friend and employee of Willis who said the romance began long before Willis hired Wade. Defense attorneys have suggested Bradley can also testify that Willis and Wade were romantically involved before she hired him.
A second witness contradicting Willis and Wade could provide further evidence to support the defendants’ assertion that Willis and Wade lied under oath at the recent hearing. The defendants also are seeking to introduce cell phone records they say are evidence that the romantic relationship began sooner than Willis and Wade have admitted.
At the Feb. 15 hearing, attorneys for the DA, Wade and Bradley himself argued Bradley should not be compelled to testify. They said any knowledge Bradley had of the Willis-Wade romance was privileged because he served as Wade’s divorce attorney for a time.
Defense attorneys argued that Bradley had personal observations and other knowledge of the relationship that he did not gain as Wade’s attorney.
McAfee decided he needed more information before determining whether to compel Bradley to testify, prompting Monday’s closed-door meeting. All the while, Wade and his attorney waited in McAfee’s courtroom.
After meeting with the judge, Bradley and his attorneys declined to comment. Wade and his attorney then met with the judge behind closed doors.

And she promised not to sleep with the employees.
Yep - I have logged onto YT to watch this criminal circus and the ‘live’ feeds were reruns.
This is terrible, the very idea that a Court of Law is expecting two black prosecutors to live of to the same legal and ethical standards as white people smacks of pure blown racism.../s
The fact that this judge hasn’t heard enough already to throw this dingbat off the case, at a minimum, leads me to believe that he just delaying. Just looking for any reason to keep the circus performing.
Viva Frei will be covering it live on Rumble and Youtube
Amazing, the left is all about image and doctrine.
Not truth.
If I was Bradley, I’d be getting the hell out of Dodge. Like Pedo Jo said, “You don’t screw around with DemonRATS.” They own all 17 of O’Bama’s “intelligence communities”. Bradley will probably be the one getting locked up in the new American “Justus” system.
