Jack Smith reminds Aileen Cannon the clock is ticking on Trump

Cannon also ordered the unsealing of documents Smith's team had filed in the case earlier this month in order to make them public. Prosecutors argued to have the materials remained sealed because they could reveal Smith's court strategy.

Former DOJ prosecutor Andrew Weissmann previously said that he believes Smith should take action against Cannon and potentially seek to have the judge removed from Trump's case. Weissmann's comments followed Cannon's denial of Smith's request to have the judge set a deadline for Trump's Classified Information Procedures Act.
