NEW/WOW: At a hearing this morning in my/ @BuzzFeedNews & CNN #FOIA lawsuit for FBI 302s from the Mueller probe, Judge Reggie Walton said Judge Sullivan could potentially find that the pardon issued to Michael Flynn is invalid because it is too broad in its language.

Our great #FOIA attorney @mvtopic & CNN's attorney asserted at the hearing that the govt needs to reprocess and produce the Flynn 302s that were withheld now that he has been pardoned. DOJ agreed to do that and we will have it by January 15

NEW: Judge Questions Whether Trump’s Pardon of Michael Flynn Is 'Too Broad'

U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton said Emmet Sullivan could find that “the wording of the pardon is too broad, in that it provides protections beyond the date of the pardon.” https://www.law.com/nationallawjournal/2020/12/04/judge-questions-whether-trumps-pardon-of-michael-flynn-is-too-broad/

These comments this AM about the Flynn pardon from Judge Walton came unexpectedly in our #FOIA case for FBI 302s from the Mueller probe. Walton rejected govt's proposal that Flynn 302s be produced in Feb saying he wants it out "while this administration is still in office.”
