'Without merit': Imprisoned Peter Navarro loses bid not to turn over presidential records

Raw Story  

While serving four months in prison, former White House trade adviser Peter Navarro will not be able to sue the federal government in an effort not to turn over potential presidential records. In an order issued Monday, a federal court of appeals affirmed a district court's order about whether the government could pursue the return of presidential records from Navarro's personal email account. "Navarro argues that the United States cannot use D.C.'s replevin statute because the PRA itself has no express cause of action for the United States to seek the return of Presidential records. Rather, in Navarro's view, the United States's only enforcement mechanism is to discipline current employees possessing Presidential records under Section 2209, a mechanism the United States cannot use against Navarro because he is no longer an employee," Monday's order explained.
