Want straightforward updates about Fulton County? You’re in the right place. This tag pulls together our reporting on local government, court cases, elections, community issues, and major events affecting residents and businesses in the county.
We focus on what matters now: courtroom developments that could change local policy, city hall decisions that affect services and taxes, and community stories that show how people are responding to change. You’ll find short explainers, breaking updates, and links to full reports so you can follow a story from first alert to final outcome.
Expect coverage in a few clear areas. First, legal and court news — major trials, indictments, and rulings that have wider impact. Second, local politics — council votes, budget moves, and election updates. Third, public services and infrastructure — transit, schools, and utility changes that affect daily life. Fourth, community and business news — new projects, local jobs, and neighborhood responses. Finally, safety and incidents — police reports and public alerts when they matter to residents.
We don’t post everything that happens in the county. Instead, we pick stories that matter to the community and to people who track regional trends. If a story affects services, taxes, large groups of people, or sets a legal precedent, you’ll see it here.

If you’re looking for something specific, try searching with a keyword plus “Fulton County” — for example, “Fulton County budget” or “Fulton County court ruling.” That narrows results and pulls up all related articles and explainers.
We verify sources and link to public records whenever possible. For legal matters we reference court filings and official statements; for government actions we link meeting notes, budgets, or announcements. If a story changes, we update the article with the new facts and a clear note explaining what changed.

The Fulton County DA's office has urged the Georgia Court of Appeals to dismiss an appeal meant to disqualify DA Fani Willis from the Trump election interference case. Defendants argue for her removal due to a romantic relationship with Nathan Wade, a special prosecutor who had financial ties with Willis. A decision on the motion is currently pending.
