Judge Cannon Denies Gag Order, Sides with Trump in Classified Docs Case
TL;DR
Judge Aileen Cannon's rejection of a gag order request in Donald Trump's classified documents trial, citing procedural politeness, may lead to her removal from the case due to indefinite delays. Legal experts suggest that if special counsel Jack Smith refiles the request and Cannon delays or denies it, an appeal to the Eleventh Circuit could result in her replacement, especially given concerns about Trump's rhetoric inciting violence.
