Trump office did not comply with subpoena issued in May demanding the return of all classified documents, a source says
The US justice department is seeking a top federal judge to hold Donald Trump’s political office in contempt of court for not fully complying with a grand jury subpoena issued in May demanding the return of all classified documents in its possession, according to a source familiar with the matter.
The department in recent weeks asked the chief US district court judge for the District of Columbia, Beryll Howell, to hold Trump’s office in contempt after prosecutors were unable to get the former president’s lawyers to designate a custodian of records to certify all records were returned.
