WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows waived his right to a formal arraignment and pleaded not guilty to charges brought in the US state of Georgia over alleged efforts to overturn 2020 presidential election results, according to a court document filed on Tuesday.
"I do hereby waive formal arraignment and enter my plea of NOT GUILTY to the Indictment in the case," the filing said.
Meadows is one of 18 co-defendants listed alongside former President Donald Trump in the Georgia case. Last month, a US judge denied a request from Meadows to move his case to federal court.
Trump also declined to appear at an arraignment and pleaded not guilty to the charges against him.
