BREAKING: DOJ asks appeals court to shut down special master's review of more than 11,000 documents seized by the FBI in its raid of Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate.
This image contained in a court filing by the Department of Justice on Aug. 30, 2022, and partially redacted by the source, shows a photo of documents seized during the Aug. 8 FBI search of former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate.
They argue that district Judge Aileen Cannon took "unprecedented" action in granting the "extraordinary relief" sought by Trump in the appointment of Dearie, and that Trump never met the necessary standard to show DOJ acted in callous disregard for his rights.
