Special Counsel to Appeal Dismissal of Documents Case

“Special Counsel Jack Smith will appeal a Florida judge’s decision dismissing the federal case charging Donald Trump with mishandling classified information and obstruction,” Bloomberg reports.

“It wasn’t immediately clear if Smith’s office would ask the Atlanta-based 11th Circuit to put the case on a faster track. Under normal circumstances, appeals can take months to resolve. But any future proceedings in the Florida case are on a collision course with the Nov. 5 presidential election.”

“If Trump is elected, he is expected to direct the Justice Department to drop the Florida case as well as a separate federal prosecution against him in Washington.”
