A federal judge paused some filing deadlines in the classified documents case against former President Donald Trump in a brief order Saturday, and agreed to additional briefings on whether she should pause the case to consider what effect the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling may have on the criminal proceedings in Florida.
Judge Aileen Cannon set a two-week briefing schedule for those arguments and paused three unrelated filing deadlines that were scheduled to take place during that period. In a statement after the judge’s order, a spokesperson for Trump said, “Cannon has rightfully issued a stay and called for additional briefing on the application of the Supreme Court’s historic decision on Presidential Immunity” and called for the case to be “thrown out entirely.
Trump is charged in the case with taking classified documents from the White House and resisting the government’s attempts to retrieve the materials. He has pleaded not guilty. The Saturday order is the latest delay in the federal case and is in favor of the Trump team’s request Friday for an updated schedule so it can argue points related to the Supreme Court decision.
