Lawyers for ex-President Donald Trump asked a federal judge to appoint a “special master” to review documents seized from Mar-a-Lago by the FBI
They also accused the DOJ of providing multiple"misleading or incomplete statement[s] of purported 'fact,'" but offered few specifics.
Trump and his office have publicly claimed that he declassified all the documents that had been seized by the FBI. But Trump's legal team has not made that explicit argument in the civil lawsuit before Cannon. The DOJ said it obtained that subpoena in May, after the FBI developed evidence that dozens of boxes with classified information — beyond the 15 boxes retrieved in January — were still at Trump's residence.
But the FBI later"uncovered multiple sources of evidence" indicating that more classified documents remained at Mar-a-Lago, according to the DOJ's filing. In their reply on Wednesday, Trump's lawyers wrote that the DOJ's account of the June 3 meeting"has been significantly mischaracterized."
