Trump Lawyer Ordered To Give His Chapman University Emails To January 6 Committee

A Federal Judge is forcing a Conservative Lawyer, who had worked for Trump before the January 6 Insurrection, to respond to the House Select Committee Subpoena of Chapman University for his emails, setting Congressional Investigators to receive access to Information they’ve wanted for months but had not been able to get.

Federal Judge, David Carter in Santa Ana, California, on Monday, pinned down exactly when Law Professor John Eastman was at work for Trump, as he devised a Plan to Overturn the 2020 Election Result.

A Lawyer for Eastman, told the Judge during a Court Hearing Monday, that his Client had been working for Trump during a number of Major controversial moments leading up to January 6:

- When he told State Legislators on January 2, they needed to “fix this, this egregious conduct” that would put Joe Biden in the White House.

- When he was in the Willard Hotel with other Trump Contacts.

- When he met with Trump and Vice President Mike Pence on January 3 about Blocking the Congressional Certification of the 2020 Vote.

The Admissions from Eastman’s Lawyer, Charles Burnham, are the clearest statements yet on how much Eastman was doing on Trump’s behalf, rather than on his own Initiative, in the days leading up to January 6, 2021.

“That work was done pursuant to representation of the president,” Burnham said, when asked specifically about Eastman briefing Hundreds of State Legislators.

The Judge then asked Eastman’s Team who his Client was during each of the moments the House sought Information about in their Letter to Eastman announcing his Subpoena. Eastman had been working for his client, Trump, his Lawyer said in Court, to nearly every Question.

Eastman previously Refused to provide Information to the House, when it Subpoenaed him directly for Testimony and Documents. He had claimed his Fifth Amendment Protection against Self-Incrimination, as a response to nearly 150 Questions and to his Document Subpoena, a Lawyer for the House said on Monday.

The House Committee then went to his former Employer, Chapman University, to seek his Records. The University received a House Subpoena last week, and Eastman Sued to Block it, pulling the Dispute into the California Federal Court.
