TL;DR Summary

A federal appeals court panel has rejected former Trump White House adviser Peter Navarro's bid to retain hundreds of government records despite a judge's order to return them promptly to the National Archives. The Justice Department sued Navarro last year, seeking to reclaim hundreds of records contained in Navarro's personal ProtonMail account that the government said should have been returned to the National Archives after the Trump administration came to an end in January 2021. Navarro acknowledged that at least 200 to 250 records in his possession belong to the government, but he contended that no mechanism exists to enforce that requirement.
