Florida <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/tag/judge/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="">Judge Aileen Cannon</a> has indefinitely suspended former President <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/tag/donald-trump/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="">Donald Trump’s</a> classified documents trial.

The move had been widely anticipated for some time and marks perhaps the greatest legal victory in Trump’s struggle against his four major indictments. The trial was previously scheduled to take place on May 20.

Cannon gave her reasoning as respecting Trump’s right to due process and the public’s interest in the “fair and efficient administration of justice.”
