The Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a motion on Jan. 29 to voluntarily dismiss its appeal in the Florida classified documents case against President Donald Trump that has reached the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit.
“The United States of America moves to voluntarily dismiss its appeal with prejudice,” a filing with the appeals court reads.
