Dozens of former judges and prosecutors have requested to file a brief in support of a Justice Department motion to dismiss the criminal case against President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn.
The bipartisan group of legal professionals on Thursday asked U.S. District Court Judge Emmet G. Sullivan to grant its request to file a friend-of-the-court brief, which they also submitted to the court. Ex-Whitewater independent counsel Ken Starr and former Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) are among the list of lawyers who joined the brief.
