"Special Counsel Seeks Judge's Removal in Trump Classified Docs Case Amid Setbacks"

Attorneys warn that the special counsel may seek the removal of Judge Cannon in the Trump classified documents case due to escalating tensions, with Trump defending the judge and criticizing her request for jury instruction proposals. The judge rejected Trump's bid to dismiss the charges against him based on the Presidential Records Act, and there is pressure for her to make a ruling on jury instructions before the trial begins to allow for potential appeals. If the judge's decision on jury instructions is deemed erroneous, the special counsel may appeal and request the Eleventh Circuit to remove her due to the appearance of bias, potentially delaying the trial.
