Trump files several motions to dismiss his classified documents case
Former President Donald Trump's legal team on Thursday filed a series of motions to dismiss the classified documents case brought by special counsel Jack Smith.
The four motions argue that the case should be dismissed on the grounds of presidential immunity; that Smith's appointment as special counsel was unlawful; that Smith charged Trump with statutes that shouldn't apply to the former president's behavior based on an unclear precedent in the Constitution; and that Trump should have been able to have custody of the documents in question, even after he was president, because of the Presidential Records Act.
