Trump’s attorney withdrew from a third legal matter on Friday, just a week after he pulled out of representing him in two federal probes.
Jim Trusty, a lawyer for Donald Trump, is withdrawing from representing him in yet another case, pulling out of a total of three legal matters involving the former president.
In a filing with the U.S. District Court of Southern Florida, Trusty said «irreconcilable differences» with Trump prevented him from «effectively and properly» representing him.
The filing comes a week after Trusty and John Rowley, another Trump attorney, resigned from representing the former president in special counsel Jack Smith’s two federal probes—one related to Trump’s mishandling of classified documents and the other to his role in the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. Last week’s resignation came hours after the Department of Justice (DOJ) indicted Trump on 37 felony charges, including 31 counts under the Espionage Act, related to the classified records probe.
