The filing is expected before Thursday’s hearing, in which U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon is scheduled to hear arguments on the matter. Trump’s lawyers last week requested the appointment of a special master charged with reviewing records obtained during the Aug. 8 search of Trump’s Florida property and setting aside documents protected by claims of legal privilege. Cannon said Saturday that it was her “preliminary intention” to appoint such a person, but also gave the Justice Department a chance to respond. On Monday, the department said it had already completed its review of the potentially privileged documents and identified a “limited set of materials that may contain privileged attorney-client information.” In a separate development, Trump’s legal team has grown with the addition of another lawyer. Chris Kise, a former Florida attorney general, has joined the team of lawyers representing Trump, according to two people familiar with the matter, who were not authorized to discuss the move by name and spoke on condition of anonymity. Kise did not respond to messages seeking comment.
