Smith claimed that the CIPA allows his team to withhold specific documents obtained from Mar-a-Lago on national security grounds.
Cannon wrote that Smith attempted to restrict defense attorneys “almost entirely from reviewing classified discovery to be produced in the case, and then placing the burden to justify otherwise on defense counsel.” According to the Florida judge, the prosecutor’s argument was an “atextual” and “almost blithe” interpretation of the CIPA law.
