FORT PIERCE — At the end of last Friday’s opening round of hearings over the legitimacy of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s appointment in the government’s classified documents case against former President Donald Trump, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon called the exchanges “very illuminating and helpful.” The colloquium-styled dialogue is scheduled to continue Monday morning, as the judge is scheduled to hear more arguments over Smith’s appointment, this time on whether the origin of his compensation is legal.
