The Justice Department has completed its review of potentially privileged documents seized from former President Donald Trump's Florida estate, according to a court filing. It has identified “a limited set' of material covered by attorney-client privilege.

WASHINGTON — The Justice Department has completed its review of potentially privileged documents seized from former President Donald Trump’s Florida estate this month and has identified “a limited set of materials that potentially contain attorney-client privileged information,” according to a court filing Monday.

In revealing that the department had completed its review of potentially privileged communications, law enforcement officials appeared to be suggesting that the appointment of a third-party special master might now be moot. The department had been relying on a specialized team to filter out potentially privileged communications and said Monday that it had completed its review of those materials before the judge’s order.

U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon said on Saturday that it was her “preliminary intent” to appoint a special master — which would be an early procedural win for the Trump legal team — but gave the department an opportunity to respond and scheduled a Thursday hearing to discuss the matter further. The judge also directed the Justice Department to submit under seal a more detailed description of the materials that were seized from Trump’s estate in Palm Beach, something the department on Monday said it would do.

DOJ affidavit raises 3 important questions about Trump Mar-a-Lago caseThis recovering litigator is focused on the kind of small details lawyers normally obsess over — and sometimes with good reason. MaddowBlog My questions: Does he still have copies of the documents? Did he monetize them already? When is DOJ indicting him? MaddowBlog The image shown in this tweet is misleading and suggests not much is available. This is a better screenshot. It still shows redactions and it shows information is also available to the reader. MaddowBlog Just more desperate reaching by the fascistic democrat cult.
