The Justice Department told the court that Former President Trump has dropped his claims that documents seized from his Mar-a-Lago residence are protected by an executive or attorney-client privilege, so now a special master is no longer required to review the documents.
Justice Departments said the fight over whether documents are protected has been reduced to only a portion of a one-page document.
They made the proffer in a 40-page filing late Thursday in the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Attorneys for the government said a court filing earlier this month by Mr. Trump’s lawyers barely mentions privilege claims, which were once the cornerstone of his defense.
