Trump takes legal action to stop FBI search Mar-a-Lago papers
(MENAFN) Previous US Leader Donald Trump filed a charge on Monday pursuing to stop the FBI from examining official papers its agents took while searching his Mar-a-Lago residence till a third-party supervisor can be selected. Trump called the search “illegal and unconstitutional.”
The lawsuit seeks the selection of a ‘special master’ to check the material taken by the FBI and decide if it is protected by high-level or attorney-client privilege ahead of the agency can start reviewing it.
Trump’s legal team further asked that the Justice Department give a detailed inventory of the held papers, and give back anything outside the possibility of the search warrant.
Trump’s Palm Beach estate was attacked by a lot of FBI agents earlier in July, in an operation reportedly against recovering classified papers seized by Trump from the White House last year.
“To date, the Government has failed to legitimize its historic decision to raid the home of a President who had been fully cooperative," according to the lawsuit. Calling the search “shockingly aggressive,” the document showed that Trump is “the clear frontrunner in the 2024 Republican Presidential Primary,” repeating the previous leader’s insistence that the search was politically motivated.
