DOJ drops Biden-era effort to get Peter Navarro’s emails

The Justice Department moved Tuesday to dismiss a lawsuit launched during the Biden administration that aimed to get emails from Trump adviser Peter Navarro‘s personal account, on which he allegedly conducted government business.

A joint stipulation filed by the DOJ and an attorney for Navarro in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia did not explain the reasoning for dropping the case but called for the lawsuit to be dismissed with prejudice, meaning the claims cannot be refiled, with each side bearing responsibility for its legal fees.
