Special Counsel Urges Judge to Dismiss Trump’s Privilege Assertions in Mar-a-Lago Investigation

People familiar with the ongoing inquiry into the management of classified documents at Donald Trump’s South Florida residence have reported that a federal judge listened to arguments on Thursday regarding Special Counsel Jack Smith’s efforts to obtain additional grand jury testimony from a lawyer representing Trump.

During a court session held behind closed doors, Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team pressed Chief Judge Beryl Howell of the District Court for the District of Columbia to reject the claims of attorney-client privilege made by Evan Corcoran, an attorney representing former president Trump, during a grand-jury hearing in January.

According to sources, after the hearing, prosecutors requested that Judge Howell use the “crime-fraud exception” to override the privilege claims and require Corcoran to provide additional testimony, the Wall Street Journal reported.
