JAKARTA - Judge in Florida, United States ordered lawyers for former President Donald Trump not to reveal evidence in case of classified documents to the media or public, according to court filings.

The order from Judge Bruce Reinhart also provides strict conditions for Trump's access to these materials.

"The Discovery material, along with any information gained from it, should not be disclosed to the public or news media, or disseminated on any news platform or social media, without prior notification and approval from the United States or approval from the Court," reads an order filed on Monday. June 20.

The order also stipulates Trump is "not allowed to keep a copy" and he can only review case material "under the direct supervision of Legal Advisors or members of Law Advisory staff."

The order granted a motion filed last week by prosecutors, asking the court to establish requirements on how the defenseperson kept and used the documents.

Trump, who re-electiond for presidential nomination from Republicans in the 2024 presidential election, was charged with federal charges earlier this month. He was accused of keeping government classified documents illegally after leaving the White House, then conspiring to obstruct a federal investigation into the matter.

Trump pleaded not guilty in court to all 37 charges.

He defended his handling of the documents in an interview with Fox News on Monday, saying he needed to check the boxes to remove personal items, including golf shirts, pants and shoes.

"Before I send the boxes, I have to take all my stuff out. These boxes are interspersed with various kinds of stuff," Trump said.

"I'm very busy, as you can see," he said.

Trump repeated his statement that the boxes contained magazine articles, personal items and artwork.

Meanwhile, the Justice Department told the court the boxes contained highly classified documents, including plans to attack Iran.
