Judge Aileen Cannon on Tuesday extended the hold she has placed blocking the Justice Department from sharing special counsel Jack Smith’s report on his investigation into President Donald Trump’s mishandling of classified documents with members of Congress.

Judge Aileen M. Cannon ruled that special counsel Jack Smith was unlawfully appointed and had no authority to prosecute Donald Trump.

The US Justice Department has ended criminal proceedings against two co-defendants in President Donald Trump's classified documents case. The appeal concerning charges against Trump's valet and Mar-a-Lago manager was withdrawn following a ruling that deemed the special counsel's appointment unlawful.
