Judge #AileenCannon GRANTED #JackSmith’s motion to keep #classified #discovery from #Trump co-defendants #Nauta & #DeOliveira.

Cannon's ruling was a no-brainer (for most judges) & it avoids her getting reversed for a 3rd time by the #EleventhCircuit.

Hopefully she’ll reverse herself on full disclosure of #witness names/statements (to avoid 11th circuit reversal).

Chevron is the shortest path from #Italian to #DeOliveira.

#NEW: Judge #AileenCannon schedules 2 hearings on Oct. 12 to hear arguments from #SpecialCounsel about potential #ConflictsOfInterest for 2 #Trump-paid #lawyers representing #Nauta & #DeOliveira. DeOliveira hearing at 1pm. Nauta hearing at 3pm.

#Cannon appears to have granted most of the SpecialCounsel's asks for #conflicts hearings. Hearings will not be #ExParte. SpecialCounsel will be able to present evidence. Nauta & DeOliveira must be present but other witnesses do not.

(per Hugo Lowell)

🍿 "Immediately after receiving new counsel, Trump Employee 4 retracted his prior false testimony and provided information that implicated Nauta, [Carlos] De Oliveira, and Trump in efforts to delete security camera footage, as set forth in the superseding indictment," the court filing says."
