The DOJ is asking for the Supreme Court to deny former President Donald Trump’s request to reconsider an appeals court ruling that allows federal agencies keep his documents.

DOJ urges SCOTUS to rebuff Trump's effort to get the 100+ Mar-a-Lago docs with classified markings back into the special master review, defending 11th Circuit finding of a "serious and unwarranted intrusion on the Executive Branch’s authority."

On Tuesday, according to The New York Post, the DOJ argued that Trump’s legal team could not prove that the involvement of the Supreme Court would harm his case.

This co*es after the 11th Circuit Court overruled Judge Aileen Cannon by not permitting Special Master, Raymond Dearie, to examine the 100 documents that were seized during the Mar-a-Lago raid.
