(Martin County Sheriff&rsquo;s Office via AP)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Cannon ruled against Routh&rsquo;s claims that prosecutors &ldquo;delayed discovery or failed to comply&rdquo; with its obligations since Routh was arraigned in September and charged with attempting to assassinate the president-elect, who had just survived a separate assassination attempt on July 13.<\/p>\n<p>The judge also found Routh&rsquo;s attorneys &ldquo;had not meaningfully responded&rdquo; to prosecutors&rsquo; timetable for providing reciprocal discovery materials. However, she found that Routh&rsquo;s counsel had still not provided any notice of insanity defense disclosure, though noting his counsel indicated &ldquo;mental health evaluations are ongoing.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The deadline for Routh to provide notice &ldquo;of an insanity defense&rdquo; or &ldquo;note of expert evidence of a mental condition&rdquo; is Feb. 3.<\/p>\n<p>Cannon is a Trump appointee who oversaw his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-gop-to-press-garland-on-abuses-before-judiciary-committee\/\" title=\"House Republicans will question Garland on &#039;abuses&#039; in front of Judiciary Committee\">classified documents criminal case<\/a> before she was randomly assigned to Routh&rsquo;s trial. She denied Routh&rsquo;s motion in October to recuse from the case after he cited her previous handling of the president-elect&rsquo;s case.<\/p>\n<p>On Sept. 15, Routh allegedly attempted to ambush Trump at his golf club in south Florida, hiding in the shrubs on the property with a semiautomatic rifle. Secret Service agents thwarted the attack, and Routh fled before being apprehended. While no shots were fired, the case escalated due to a new felony attempted murder charge related to his flight from law enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>The additional state charge stems from an incident during Routh&rsquo;s escape when police shut down traffic to apprehend him. The resulting traffic disruption led to a severe accident that nearly killed a young girl.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;As a result of that, we felt compelled to seek justice on her behalf and her family that will never be the same as they cope with her injuries,&rdquo; said Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody last week. Routh has pleaded not guilty to five felony charges stemming from the alleged assassination attempt, including several firearms charges.<\/p>\n<p>Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) recently expressed frustration over federal &ldquo;roadblocks&rdquo; and predicted they will dissipate once Trump takes office in January. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The tide will turn on January 20th, and we fully expect that the federal roadblocks will be removed,&rdquo; DeSantis posted on social media.<\/p>\n<p>Routh&rsquo;s trial delay allows his counsel to address the new charges and prepare for what promises to be a high-profile case.
