Prosecutors Urge Appeals Court to Reinstate Trump Indictment on Classified Records

US prosecutors, led by Special Counsel Jack Smith, have requested an appeals court to revive the criminal case against former President Donald Trump concerning his alleged mishandling of classified documents and obstruction. This appeal comes after US District Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the indictment in July. The prosecutors argue that Judge Cannon, who was appointed by Trump in 2020, erred in deeming Smith’s appointment unconstitutional. With less than three months remaining before the presidential election, the Special Counsel’s office is pushing for the reversal of Cannon’s ruling, contending that Congress had not limited such appointments.
