Overview

• Judge Aileen Cannon largely sides with special counsel Jack Smith in limiting former President Trump's team's access to classified information in the documents case.
• Donald Trump has pleaded not guilty to 40 federal charges related to the illegal retention of classified materials and obstruction of federal authorities.
• The ruling allows for redactions and substitutions in certain categories of classified information, with some decisions pending further hearings.
• Critics, including former Trump White House lawyer Ty Cobb, have blasted Cannon's handling of the case, calling her decisions 'fundamentally unhinged.'
• The trial, initially set for May, is likely to be postponed, with Trump's team proposing a post-election date and Smith suggesting July.
