The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) held no hearings about the application requesting to spy on Carter Page, a U.S. citizen and former Trump campaign volunteer, according to court documents filed by the Justice Department relating to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit.
The lawsuit, filed by government transparency watchdog Judicial Watch, requested documents related to hearings held by the FISC regarding an FBI application for a warrant to surveil Page. When the Department of Justice (DOJ) responded that no records exist that are responsive to the request, Judicial Watch took the matter to court.
