Trump team, DOJ to submit suggestions for special master in Mar-a-Lago raid case

Former President Trump’s legal team and the Justice Department are expected to submit lists to a federal judge Friday afternoon of potential candidates to serve as an independent special master to review the records seized by the FBI during its unprecedented raid of Mar-a-Lago last month.

On Monday, U.S. District Judge from the Southern District of Florida Aileen M. Cannon ordered that a special master be appointed to "review the seized property, manage assertions of privilege and make recommendations thereon, and evaluate claims for return of property."

Cannon ordered that Trump’s team and the government submit their own list of names to Cannon Friday by 5 p.m. ET.
