READ: Watergate prosecutors' request to file opinion in Flynn case
By The Hill staff - 05/13/20 10:20 AM EDT
Sixteen former Watergate prosecutors this week asked to file a friend-of-the-court brief weighing in on the case of former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
"The Watergate Prosecutors ... are uniquely suited to help ensure a fair presentation of the issues raised by the government’s motion" to dismiss the case, the group's request states.
Flynn's attorneys oppose the request.
The group's motion was temporarily denied by the judge, who will determine whether to grant a request by the Department of Justice to drop charges against Flynn.
