TL;DR Summary

A federal judge has ruled that Evan Corcoran, a lawyer for former President Donald Trump, cannot use attorney-client privilege to avoid answering questions in the criminal investigation of Trump's mishandling of classified documents. Corcoran is one of at least three Trump attorneys who have reportedly appeared before the federal grand jury. The judge's ruling comes after a report that at least two dozen Mar-a-Lago staffers have received subpoenas as part of the investigation. Prosecutors allege that Corcoran was used by Trump in furtherance of a crime or fraud, which would overcome the shield of attorney-client privilege.
