A federal judge granted a request from former President Donald Trump's legal team.
-On Labor Day, a federal judge granted a special request for a master to review the evidence that was seized from Donald Trump's Florida home.
Boxes of documents were taken from his Mar-a-Lago home last month.
US District Judge Aileen Cannon cleared the way for a third-party attorney to review all the seized materials, not just for documents covered by attorney-client privilege, but also for potential executive privilege concerns.
The judge did not agree with Trump’s arguments that there had been a “callous disregard” for his constitutional rights with the search. She also did not rule that any materials seized form the home, should be returned.
The Trump legal team had filed a lawsuit seeking a special master to review the materials the FBI seized last month, and now one will be appointed with the potential to decide that certain materials are out of bounds to the FBI’s investigation.
