Isolated and inexperienced: A portrait of the judge overseeing Trump\u2019s documents case from veterans of her courtroom

\nJudge Aileen Cannon had been on the federal bench for little more than a year when a senior judge offered to preside over one of her first criminal trials in her isolated south Florida courthouse. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s very lonely,\u201d Senior Judge Paul C. Huck told CNN of Fort Pierce, a small fishing and citrus community on the edge of the Southern District of Florida where Cannon is the only federal judge. \u201cIt\u2019s a pretty sleepy town with a pretty sleepy courtroom.\u201d

\nHuck ultimately presided over the March 2022 criminal trial \u2013 not because Cannon needed help, he said, but because he enjoys volunteering for trials in courts across Florida. <\/p>\n
\u201cI thought I\u2019d go up there and just spend some time with her and get to know her better,\u201d Huck said of Cannon, whom he recalled as \u201cvery smart\u201d and \u201cvery personable.\u201d <\/p>\n
Two years later, Cannon is now presiding over one of the most consequential and complex cases in America: the criminal prosecution of former president Donald Trump over his handling of the nation\u2019s secrets. And she\u2019s attracting nationwide scrutiny for how she\u2019s approached the case.
\nSince Trump was first indicted a year ago, Cannon has dragged out the proceedings in ways that have flummoxed legal scholars and put a trial initially scheduled to begin last month on hold indefinitely. <\/p>\n
Several attorneys who have practiced in front of Cannon \u2013 and who spoke to CNN for this story \u2013 pointed to her isolation as one explanation for her conduct. Cannon\u2019s solitary post in the Fort Pierce courthouse, one that rarely sees high-profile action, deprives her of the informal, day-to-day interactions with more seasoned judges who sit at the other courthouses and could offer her advice, the lawyers told CNN.

\nThey also said Cannon\u2019s lack of trial experience, both as a lawyer and a judge, is apparent. In her seven years as a Justice Department attorney, Cannon participated on the trial teams of just four criminal cases. \u00a0And on the bench, she\u2019s only presided over a handful of criminal trials \u2013 and Huck took over one of them. <\/p>\n
For this account of Cannon\u2019s judicial demeanor, CNN spoke to ten attorneys who have had cases \u2013 both criminal and civil \u2013 before her. The lawyers spoke to CNN on the condition of anonymity because of the professional and ethical risks of speaking to press about a sitting federal judge in front of whom they practice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
