The Florida jurist finds ‘no historical precedent’ for plan to release a special counsel’s dossier while a case is ongoing.

Federal Judge Aileen Cannon ordered a Friday hearing to discuss releasing a DOJ report in the dismissed classified document case against Donald Trump.

Six months after she dismissed the classified documents case against Donald Trump, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon can now decide whether to squash the release of Jack Smith's report, too.

Judge Aileen Cannon may not be inclined to allow the Justice Department to share special counsel Jack Smith's report on the classified documents case with Congress — at least for now.

The Florida-based judge did not immediately rule on whether the Justice Department can move forward with its plan to show the report to a handful of lawmakers.
