Signaling something of a continuation of the amici curiae fight over special counsel Jack Smith’s authority that preceded Judge Aileen Cannon’s decision to toss Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago classified documents prosecution, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit on Monday allowed the former Whitewater independent counsel, a law professor, and a legal organization to file a brief saying the dismissal didn’t go far enough.

The 11th Circuit on Monday issued a short order granting the amici curiae (or “friends of the court”) — Robert Ray, the originalist Landmark Legal Foundation, Ray, and law professor Seth Barrett Tillman — permission to file their brief.
