JUST IN: Federal appeals court rules that a judge’s order appointing a special master to review documents seized from former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort should be dismissed.

A federal appeals court Thursday ruled that a judge’s order appointing a special master to review documents seized from former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort should be dismissed.

The ruling by a three-judge panel of the 11th Circuit lifts earlier restrictions on the Justice Department’s examination of classified documents and other records and will allow investigators to proceed with the probe more quickly. The panel said that U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon’s order in September to appoint an arbiter and prevent the government from using a trove of documents it retrieved from Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort on Aug. 8 was incorrect.

"The law is clear. We cannot write a rule that allows any subject of a search warrant to block government investigations after the execution of the warrant," the panel wrote."Accordingly, we agree with the government that the district court improperly exercised equitable jurisdiction, and that dismissal of the entire proceeding is required."

AngieNBCLA AS a very wise reporter on TV said, DT will be a defendant for the rest of his life..

They are doing everything in ther power to destroy Trump. He is tough but its him against the world and he really has no one he can trust but his family.

If he had been just a business man he would have already been arrested and serving time just like Martha Stewart. He has been out a long time. Lock him up and throw the key away! No Mercy!

One law for everyone. If Trump was a soldier and had done this, he would have already been in prison. Oh, wait he was the Commander-in-Chief when he stole the Top Secret documents. Off to jail he should go. Period.
