Aileen Cannon Suspending Trump Case Leaves Legal Experts 'Disgusted'
Newsweak ^ | May 8, 2024 | Sean O'Driscoll

Legal analysts are accusing Judge Aileen Cannon of pro-Donald Trump bias after indefinitely suspending his classified documents case.

Cannon, a Trump appointee, indefinitely postponed the trial on Tuesday, citing legal disputes around classified evidence. Cannon said there were eight outstanding substantive pending motions for her to rule on and predicted this will take until at least late July.

It is unknown whether the case will begin before the November 2024 presidential election. If elected, Trump has a number of options to kill the trial, including pardoning himself or appointing a favorable attorney general to drop the charges.

Cannon is overseeing the case in which the former president is accused of illegally retaining classified documents, hoarding them at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida and obstructing attempts by federal officials to retrieve them.

Trump, the presumptive Republican candidate in the 2024 presidential election, has pleaded not guilty to the charges against him. He has denied any wrongdoing in the case and has said the documents he retained were personal.

“Legal Experts” = “Lawfare Experts”

A “legal expert” is a lawyer who isn’t good enough to work at a firm, but good enough for TV.

The watching public presumably doesn’t know the law so the “expert” can say anything.
