Cannon Dismisses Trump's Documents Case

Federal Judge Aileen Cannon of the Southern District of Florida has dismissed President Donald Trump's classified documents case on constitutional grounds. 


Cannon wrote in her order granting Trump's motion to dismiss...


"The Superseding Indictment is DISMISSED because Special Counsel Smith's appointment violates the Appointments Clause of the United States Constitution." 


Cannon ruled that no federal statute cited by the Justice Department authorized the appointment of Special Counsel Jack Smith by the Attorney General, meaning he has no authority to prosecute the case.
