James Comey's legal team has filed a motion seeking the dismissal of charges accusing him of threatening President Donald Trump. The charges stem from what is being referred to as the "seashells case."
Comey's legal representatives have labeled the charges "preposterous" and argue that the Department of Justice's case undermines fundamental legal principles. They also claim the DOJ conducted illegal surveillance.
The motion to dismiss asserts that the alleged threat against President Trump lacks the characteristics of a "true threat." This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
