Dearie, a veteran federal judge, was a candidate proposed by Trump who the Justice Department did not object to. He holds senior status in the Eastern District of New York and was first appointed by Ronald Reagan. Judge Aileen Cannon, who was appointed by Trump, directed Dearie to issue interim reports and recommendations"as appropriate" during the review, which she ordered to be complete by Nov. 30, closer to the timeline request by the Trump lawyers. The government wanted the review done by mid-October.The Justice Department had previously stated that they didn't want the special master to have access to classified material, but Cannon has said that request is meritless.
Cannon also says she's unconvinced with the government's argument that the FBI's criminal investigation into the documents is intertwined with the intelligence community's assessment. Cannon notes that Trump's team will bear the cost of the professional fees and expenses of the special master and any support staff or expert consultants who are engaged with the process. Trumps team had originally requested the cost be split between them and the government.
