US court grants Donald Trump request to keep his records from Capitol riot inquiry

A US appeals court has put off allowing congressional investigators access to former president Donald Trump's White House records relating to the 6 January attack on the Capitol and scheduled a hearing on the matter for 30 November.

Mr Trump's lawyers had asked the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to put Tuesday's lower court ruling on hold pending an appeal, which they said could be fast-tracked for a quick ruling.

The three judges on the appeals panel randomly assigned to the case were all appointed to the judiciary by either President Joe Biden or former President Barack Obama, both Democrats.
