The federal judge overseeing one of the criminal cases against former President Donald Trump on June 10 rejected the former president’s bid to throw out some charges against him, although she ordered one paragraph struck from the superseding indictment in the case.

Special counsel Jack Smith and his team disagreed, asserting that the charging document was “more than sufficient” under the law.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, the judge overseeing the case in a Florida federal court, sided mostly with the government.
Judge Cannon said there were issues with the indictment but that the issues did not rise to the level of dismissing the additional charges.
