Judge rejects Trump’s appeal to contest seizure of documents at his Florida mansion

A US federal judge rejected the appeal filed by the country’s former president Donald Trump to challenge government access to materials seized from his Mar-a-Lago, Florida mansion.

Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon signed an order for dismissal for lack of jurisdiction, ending the pending hearings and the terms of the case.

This decision allows the DOJ full access to found records and items among the documents marked as classified in the former president’s properties.

The judge’s order came four days later Trump to refuse to appeal High Court ruling, that he had canceled the appointment of a special expert whose objective would have been to examine the documents stolen by the FBI.

With resolutions, the process could be canceled so that researchers go through thousands of documents faster whose access was previously blocked.

In August, the FBI seized more than 100 allegedly classified documents at Mar-a-Lago. Later, a team hired by Trump’s lawyers found more records marked classified.
