(Reuters) – Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani is clashing with prosecutors over how to determine whether materials seized from his home and offices last month are covered by “attorney-client privilege.”
Federal prosecutors in Manhattan are investigating the former New York City mayorâs dealings with Ukrainian oligarchs while working for then-U.S. President Trump.
In a letter made public on Monday, Giuliani’s lawyers objected to the “broad and sweeping nature” of searches conducted on April 28 at Giuliani’s home and office, where electronic devices were seized, as well as a November 2019 search of his Apple iCloud account.

A member of the Kentucky Attorney General’s search warrant task force was sanctioned this year for publicly defending the search warrant process and the judge who approved the warrant for Breonna Taylor’s home.
Jefferson Circuit Court Judge Charles Cunningham received a private reprimand from the Judicial Conduct Commission in January for comments he made in an op-ed published in The Courier Journal. The reprimand doesn’t name Cunningham, but he confirmed to KyCIR that he is the subject of the disciplinary action.
Cunningham was publicly named last week as a member of the task force the attorney general will charge with scrutinizing and suggesting possible reforms for how search warrants are obtained and executed in Kentucky.
