Jack Smith just filed another motion seeking a gag order on Donald Trump in documents case.
Judge Cannon on Tuesday denied without prejudice his similar motion filed a week ago for Smith's violation of court rules requiring both sides to confer prior to filing any motion.

Smith continues to claim, without evidence, that Trump's comments about the unprecedented, incognito, armed raid of MAL endangers law enforcement agents involved in the case (all names redacted in court filings)
Smith included Trump's May 25 Truth Social post--posted the day after Smith filed his first gag order motion--as evidence of his alleged continued threat.

Here is Bratt's certification that unlike last week, he conferred with defense before filing the motion.
In addition to warning Smith that she would impose sanctions if he again violated court rules, Cannon said the motion raised "substantive and/or Constitutional questions."
I note again that Smith did not use this motion to bolster Merrick Garland's claim that the same use of lethal force policy was included in (nonpublic) search plan for Biden's classified documents.
