Judge Cannon Refuses to Step Aside in Trump Documents Case Despite Colleagues' Urging in June 2023
Jun 20, 2024, 06:15 PM
Judge Aileen Cannon, who is overseeing former President Donald Trump's classified documents case, rejected suggestions from two experienced federal judges in South Florida, including Chief Judge Cecilia Altonaga, to step aside.

Despite these private urgings in June 2023, Cannon chose to keep the case, adding another dimension to the increasing criticism of her handling of the matter, as reported by the New York Times.
