Multiple attorneys general call on appeals court to dismiss Trump indictment | National
SUMMARY: Multiple state attorneys general, led by Florida, have urged the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold the dismissal of an indictment against President-elect Donald Trump. The indictment, brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith, accused Trump of mishandling classified documents. The attorneys general argue that Smith’s appointment by U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland was unconstitutional, claiming it violated Article II of the U.S. Constitution. They contend that Smith’s power, granted without Congressional approval, is unconstitutional, as it lacks presidential accountability. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton also filed a separate brief opposing Smith’s appointment.
