Former President Donald Trump said sensitive information in classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence “should have never been cause for alarm,” according to a court filing on Aug. 31.

“The purported justification for the initiation of this criminal probe was the alleged discovery of sensitive information contained within the 15 boxes of Presidential records,” the filing (pdf) says, which was written by Trump’s lawyer Lindsey Halligan.
