The federal judge in Florida who initially granted former President Donald Trump‘s special master request has dismissed his lawsuit, marking a sudden end to the monthslong chronicle since the FBI‘s search of Trump's residence.
Following the FBI's unprecedented search of Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, the former president requested a third party to oversee the Justice Department‘s investigation into the documents seized from the Florida estate.
On Monday, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, an appointee of the former president, affirmed an appeals court's decision that she lacked jurisdiction to appoint a special master to oversee documents taken from his estate and lifted an injunction that blocked investigators from using them in a criminal investigation in the meantime.
By dismissing the lawsuit, titled Trump v. United States, all scheduled hearings over the dispute in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida are canceled, and all pending motions are “denied as moot,” according to a court order.
