The House wins access to secret grand jury material gathered in former special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation and cited in his report
The appeals panel sided with the chief judge of the DC District Court, who had roundly criticized the Justice Department's legal theories to keep the Mueller materials under seal and endorsed the House's investigation into President Donald Trump.READ: Court ruling granting House access to Mueller grand jury materialThe decision was split 2-1. The Justice Department could appeal to the Supreme Court or again to the DC-based appeals court.
The House had told the courts it wants the still-confidential Mueller findings and grand jury material so it can investigate the President for potential obstruction of justice during the Russia investigation. The House especially raised questions about what campaign witnesses told Mueller versus what Trump said to Mueller in written answers -- saying he didn't recall conversations about WikiLeaks in 2016.
