A federal judge on Monday dismissed former President Donald Trump's lawsuit challenging the government's access to materials seized from his Mar-a-Lago resort, marking the formal end to Trump's monthslong legal fight following the FBI's raid of his home.
A three-judge panel on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit ruled Dec. 1 that Cannon should not have appointed the special master, writing that she"improperly exercised" an expansion of her jurisdiction.
"The law is clear. We cannot write a rule that allows any subject of a search warrant to block government investigations after the execution of the warrant. Nor can we write a rule that allows only former presidents to do so," the judges wrote.
