The Heritage Foundation filed two lawsuits against Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg on Monday to force his office to turn over records related to its investigation into former President Donald Trump.
The lawsuits come after Bragg failed to comply with two Freedom of Information Law, or FOIL, requests relating to his communications with the Justice Department, the White House, and any Democratic lawmakers regarding his prosecution of Trump.
Bragg and his office charged Trump with 34 counts of falsifying business records in April. Trump pleaded not guilty to the charges, which stem from hush money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential election.
