De Oliveira pleaded not guilty to four criminal counts related to an alleged attempt to delete surveillance footage from Trump's Mar-a-Lago club. De Oliveira, a property manager at Trump's Palm Beach resort, was added to the case in a superseding indictment filed late last month. Walt Nauta, Trump's valet and co-defendant in the original indictment filed by special counsel Jack Smith, also received additional charges in the superseding indictment. Trump had already pleaded not guilty to the new charges and waived his appearance in last week's hearing. Trump's charges in Florida are one of four active criminal cases against him as he seeks the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.

The newest defendant in former President Donald Trump's classified documents case failed to enter a plea in court Thursday due to an issue with his local counsel, NBC News reported. Walt Nauta, Trump's valet, pleaded not guilty to the latest charges against him during the hearing, according to NBC. Thursday's scheduled arraignment in special counsel Jack Smith's case stemmed from a new batch of charges filed in a superseding indictment last month. Trump, who was also hit with additional charges in the superseding indictment, has already pleaded not guilty. The following month, Smith brought a superseding indictment that added three new counts against Trump.

☆ New Trump co-defendant's plea delayed while he seeks Florida lawyer

Carlos De Oliveira (L), personal aide to former US President Donald Trump, arrives at the James L. King Federal Courthouse in Miami, Florida, on July 31, 2023. Carlos De Oliveira — the new co-defendant in the Trump classified documents criminal case — appeared in Miami federal court Monday morning, but had the entry of his plea postponed to give him time to hire a local Florida lawyer. De Oliveira was ordered free on a $100,000 signature bond by Magistrate Judge Edwin Torres at the brief hearing after Torres read out the four charges facing the defendant. De Oliveira's failure so far to get a Florida lawyer mirrors the difficulties that Trump had hiring a local attorney for the case. Nauta had his arraignment twice postponed because of the same issue.

WASHINGTON, July 28 (Reuters) - Donald Trump on Friday denied wrongdoing in his handling of security tapes sought by federal investigators, a day after prosecutors added new charges alleging the former president ordered employees at his Florida resort to delete the videos. Trump, the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, said in an interview with conservative radio host John Fredericks that he believed he wasn't required to hand over security tapes from his Mar-a-Lago resort but did so anyway. "These were security tapes. De Oliveira, 56, told another worker at the resort where Trump lives that "the boss" wanted security videos of the property in Florida deleted after the Justice Department subpoenaed them. Trump also said he would not end his 2024 presidential campaign if he is convicted and sentenced on the various charges against him.

De Oliveira, 56, told another worker at the resort where Trump lives that "the boss" wanted security videos of the property in Florida deleted after the Justice Department subpoenaed them. Trump pleaded not guilty in Miami last month to federal charges of unlawfully retaining the classified government documents after leaving office in 2021 and obstructing justice. Prosecutors filed additional charges against another Trump aide, Walt Nauta. Nauta pleaded not guilty earlier this month to charges he helped the former president hide documents. According to the new indictment, Nauta and De Oliveira moved 64 boxes of records to Trump's residence after the Justice Department subpoenaed Trump for any classified records in May 2022.
