A panel of judges on the US Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit ruled Thursday to revoke the appointment of a special teacher in charge of reviewing thousands of documents seized by the FBI from the Mar-a-Lago property of former President Donald Trump.
That appointment had been one of Trump’s greatest judicial achievements in the legal battle he is having with the current US government in relation to those documents, since the expert was in charge of determining which papers the Executive could access in its investigation and which it could not.
The decision of the panel of three judges, including two appointed by Trump, will enter effective in seven days, without the intervention of the full circuit court or the Supreme Court.
