JUST IN: Paul Manafort's lawyer files a motion seeking to suppress evidence obtained from a storage unit, but not his residence. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4433457-Motion-to-Suppress-Storage-Locker.html …pic.twitter.com/KrU2hhCKMu
This possibility was noted by @joshgerstein earlier, and I meant to add that tweet to this thread!https://twitter.com/joshgerstein/status/982446563539800064 …
Also: In a sign that he was rushed, Manafort's lawyer misspelled "SUPRESS" in the caption of the filing. :-(pic.twitter.com/tP0AUzVzBs
It is after midnight, and Judge Amy Berman Jackson did not rule on Manafort's request for an extension of time to file a motion to suppress regarding the search of the residence. Nor did his lawyer file such a motion. So, in theory, it's now out of time.

Love the excitement for a 4a story, tbh.
HERE IT IS —> Manafort Says The FBI's Search Of A Storage Unit Was Illegal, Wants Evidence Tossedhttps://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/paul-manafort-says-the-fbi-illegally-searched-a-storage?utm_term=.gqv8nXER6 …
Color me skeptical of the argument made by Manafort's lawyers in their late Friday night filing: https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/paul-manafort-says-the-fbi-illegally-searched-a-storage?utm_term=.hlb6rQ5E8#.frvYvn1a3 …pic.twitter.com/OhQrCFVA6a
Rule 45 requires a showing of good cause. This guy doesn't even try to give a reason. Should be denied for that reason alone.
Likely granted. Wouldn’t want an IAC claim to overturn this for non filing of meritorious suppression motion on appeal.
Hi Chris. Is this a response to Manafort's request to suppress the evidence? Seems like a quick response?
@EFCpgh I feel like anyone who practices in federal court knows counsel who would pull something this stupid, but to see it in this kind of high stakes case is really something.
Could they be hoping she rejects it and their fillings so they generate grounds for appeal. I mean the really seem to be wanting to drag this out and push it beyond the election. Thus giving trump opportunity to pardon after election.
He needs a couple extra days to figure out how to access his Rubles after the sanctions kicked in. 
And all he's done is sit at home since being given the deadline. Must have spent to much time on the x box. Useless.
Thank the all powerful THC molecules! They are all going down.
So does the judge rule on this tonight? It already seems that the extension is granted at least until Monday, if the judge isn't ruling this weekend.
