TL;DR Summary

A federal appeals court has ordered a lawyer for former President Donald Trump to turn over documents related to the retention of classified records at his Mar-a-Lago estate. The ruling is a win for the Justice Department, which has been investigating why Trump and his representatives resisted demands to return the documents to the government. The court's decision suggests that prosecutors have argued that Trump was using his legal representation to further a crime. The investigation is one of multiple legal threats Trump faces, including probes in Atlanta and Washington over his efforts to undo the election result and a grand jury investigation in New York over hush money payments.
