A federal judge in Florida declined to rule from the bench Thursday after hearing arguments on former President Donald Trump’s request for a neutral third party to review documents seized from his home by FBI agents seeking classified records.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon said she would issue an order later as the hearing in West Palm Beach wrapped up. Trump started the hearing with the upper hand after Cannon issued a preliminary order over the weekend saying she was leaning toward granting his request.
Cannon, a Trump appointee, also said she would unseal a more detailed list of items seized from Mar-a-Lago after neither side objected. A cursory list of such items was made public earlier, revealing the highly sensitive nature of some of the material Trump held at his home.
