CNN is resorting to legal action to obtain documents used in special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

The cable news channel sued the FBI after the bureau allegedly failed to satisfy the broadcaster’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request made in March for “FBI memoranda from any and all” of the witness interviews.
