The Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer facing trial on a charge of lying to the FBI got a little judicial help Saturday.
Washington, D.C., District Court Judge Christopher Cooper set a high bar for Special Prosecutor John Durham to introduce disputed emails.
The Obama appointee denied a motion by defendant Michael Sussman to exclude notes or testimony from FBI witnesses about a meeting with Jim Baker.
Judge Cooper also denied a defense motion to either grant Rodney Joffe immunity or dismiss the case against Sussman.
But, information — particularly emails — Sussman claimed is subject to attorney-client privilege got a mixed result for both parties.
