Donald Trump is strongly considering seeking the appointment of a special court official to determine whether materials that the FBI seized from his Florida resort can be used in a criminal investigation, according to his lead attorney Jim Trusty and two sources familiar with the matter.
The motion – if actually filed – would be the first formal legal action by the former president after federal agents last week confiscated about 30 boxes of highly sensitive documents from his Mar-a-Lago resort in an investigation into the unauthorized retention of government secrets.
