Classified documents judge accepts pro-Trump documents from legal groups
(WASHINGTON EXAMINER) – The federal judge overseeing the classified documents case against Donald Trump on Wednesday permitted legal groups to submit amicus briefs, or friend of the court briefs, that were favorable toward the former president.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, an appointee of Trump, submitted a paperless order allowing former Trump White House senior adviser Stephen Miller‘s America First Legal Foundation to file a brief, as well as one from former U.S. Attorney General Edwin Meese, who served under former President Ronald Reagan’s administration.
“The Court has reviewed the motions and finds that the proposed amici bring to the Court’s attention relevant matter that may be of considerable help to the Court in resolving the cited pretrial motions,” Cannon wrote. “The amicus briefs are accepted for Court consideration.”
