TL;DR Summary

A federal appeals court is considering whether a lawyer for former President Donald Trump must provide testimony and evidence to prosecutors investigating how classified documents remained at Mar-a-Lago months after a subpoena to return all sensitive files. Trump's legal team has appealed a lower-court judge's ruling that the lawyer, Evan Corcoran, must provide evidence to prosecutors because his legal services may have been used to facilitate a possible crime - obstruction of government attempts to recover highly sensitive documents. The fight for Corcoran's information highlights the degree to which prosecutors are trying to gather all of the available evidence about conversations among Trump and his advisers after they received a subpoena in May of last year seeking all documents with classified markings.
