The scholar and organization filed a March 21 brief arguing that the delegation of authority to Special Counsel Jack Smith is invalid, rendering the indictment invalid, as well.Smith’s appointment furnishes him with “the full power and independent authority to exercise all investigative and prosecutorial functions of any United States Attorney.
