[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More generally, I think it’s important to remember what this proceeding is about.  It’s not a criminal proceeding, it’s about seeking the return of his own property that was seized, and asserting any appropriate privileges.  Let’s say among the 88 news articles found in one part of his office, Trump knows there is an article about the Yankees signed by Aaron Judge.  He really wants that back.  But without seeing what’s there, how can he know that it includes his Aaron Judge article?  If he doesn’t assert now that it’s missing and it turns out it’s not there because an agent stole it to sell on eBay, will Trump have waived the right to claim it is missing if he doesn’t assert that argument now, before his team sees the documents?

Again, not saying this happened.  I have no reason to believe it did.  But these are legitimate reasons why Dearie’s process seems problematic. [/quote]

Exactly.  This is not a criminal proceeding - the government first asked nicely for the return of their property and then, when that didn't work, went and got it.  When they realized exactly what Trump had kept, it started to get closer to a criminal proceeding - but it didn't start out that way.  And btw, Trump's lousy lawyers never properly served the government or even properly filed a complaint? motion? or whatever for this, they just made something up and Judge Cannon indulged them.
