Special counsel Jack Smith's team is seeking to compel Trump attorney Evan Corcoran to testify under the crime-fraud exception, which allows the prosecutors to pierce attorney-client privilege claims when they have reason to believe that an attorney is helping to further a crime.
Prosecutors have asked a federal judge to grant the crime-fraud exception, according to The New York Times and other outlets, which suggests former President Donald Trump or his allies may have used Corcoran's services to further a crime.
