Lawyers for former President Donald Trump again called on a federal judge to allow them access to classified documents that federal prosecutors want to redact in the government’s case against the former president.

In a court filing submitted Wednesday in Florida, his attorneys rejected claims made by special counsel Jack Smith’s team that some materials in the case are too sensitive to be disclosed.
