Special counsel Jack Smith is appealing a bombshell ruling from a Florida judge Monday tossing out the case accusing Donald Trump of hoarding confidential documents.
Federal Judge Aileen Cannon — who was appointed by the former president — dismissed the entire case against the 78-year-old on the grounds that Smith’s appointment to the prosecution violated the Constitution.
Smith — who is also overseeing the Washington, DC, case accusing Trump of 2020 election interference —filed a notice of appeal Wednesday of Cannon’s decision to the Atlanta-based 11th Circuit.
