A federal appeals court on Thursday rejected an effort by former President Donald Trump to shield White House records from the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
The three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled that “there is a unique legislative need for these documents and that they are directly relevant to the Committee’s inquiry into an attack on the Legislative Branch and its constitutional role in the peaceful transfer of power.”Trump sued the select committee and the National Archives to prevent the White House from turning over records related to the Jan.
The federal appeals court had previously granted a request from Trump’s attorneys for a temporary injunction to delay the release of the first batch of requested documents by the National Archives. According to the, the appeals court decided Thursday that the temporary injunction “will expire in two weeks, or when the Supreme Court rules on an expected appeal from Trump — whichever is later.”
