"The Supreme Court handed down a very brief, unsigned order on Thursday denying former President Donald Trump’s most recent attempt to undermine a criminal investigation into classified documents that the FBI recovered from Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s Florida residence.

Technically, the litigation over the documents seized by the FBI — a lawsuit known as Trump v. United States — remains ongoing. But Trump already suffered a big loss in a federal appeals court, which restored the FBI’s ability to criminally investigate him. And even if Trump had prevailed in the Supreme Court, which he did not, his lawyers sought such a narrow modification of the appeals court’s order that it’s unclear how this modification would have mattered.

This all began in August, when the FBI seized several boxes from Mar-a-Lago, including 103 documents with classified markings, as part of an investigation into potential violations of the Espionage Act, among other things. Last month, Judge Aileen Cannon, a Trump appointee to a federal trial court in Florida, appointed another federal judge as a “special master” to review the seized documents and help determine whether some of them are protected by attorney-client or executive privilege."
