MIAMI — A federal judge on Friday halted a U.S. search for national security damage assessments that had been ordered by another judge in the politically charged case of three convicted Cuban spies who are seeking lenient prison sentences.
Without comment, U.S. District Judge Joan Lenard issued a stay sought by federal prosecutors, who want more time to appeal the original order they say was far too broad and improperly required disclosure of top secret government information. Prosecutors also insisted they have found no damage assessments relevant to the so-called Cuban Five case.
