A U.S. district judge denied former President Donald Trump’s motion to dismiss his federal classified documents case based on unconstitutional vagueness, one of the two motions — the other being his protection under the Presidential Records Act — that his lawyers used to argue dismissing the case.
In her ruling on the unconstitutional vagueness motion, Judge Aileen Cannon said that while Trump’s argument warranted “serious consideration,” she did not want to “prematurely decide” the issues raised by Trump’s lawyers related to the Espionage Act.
Cannon dismissed the arguments without prejudice, meaning defense lawyers could raise the argument again later in the case.
She has not yet issued a ruling on Trump’s other motion to dismiss that lawyers also argued during today’s hearing.
