The judge overseeing Donald Trump's federal election obstruction case has shut down a 'weird' request from the former president's lawyers, a legal expert has said.On her Civil Discourse blog, Joyce Vance, a former federal prosecutor, commented on a court hearing that took place in Washington, D.C., on Thursday between Judge Tanya Chutkan, Trump's legal team, and the office of special counsel Jack Smith.
'Here's the oddity: Trump's lawyers, who said they want to know more about the government's case before they file their motion challenging it, objected to the government filing a brief telling them all about the government's case,' Vance wrote in her blog.She continued: 'The government in essence was offering to give Trump even more discovery than the rules require them to, because they need to lay out their evidence so the Judge can evaluate the immunity issue.
