Former US President Donald Trump has been arrested at the federal courthouse in Miami, Florida on Tuesday in connection with a secret documents case.
Meanwhile, ex-US president has pleaded not guilty to charges brought up by federal prosecutors regarding mishandling of classified documents.
Lawyers for Trump and his aide and co-defendant, Walt Nauta, will enter appearances in court on their behalf. The Florida rules require that the defendants have at least one lawyer barred in the state representing them, reported CNN.
Donald Trump has denied dozens of criminal counts of willfully mishandling US government secrets and scheming to prevent their return, in a historic first appearance on Tuesday in Miami federal court.
"We are certainly entering a plea of not guilty," Todd Blanche, Trump's attorney, told the Miami hearing.
It was the former president's second arraignment as he battles a deluge of legal threats, just 10 weeks after he was charged with a string of felonies in Manhattan over hush money payments to a porn star.
"One of the saddest days in the history of our country. We are a nation in decline," Trump posted on his Truth Social platform as he was driven to court, repeating his regular accusation of a "witchhunt!"
Dozens of Trump supporters gathered nearby the court, some wearing "Make America Great Again" baseball caps and one with a sign reading "Indict Jack Smith" -- the special prosecutor who brought the charges.
A judicial source said Trump will be processed like other defendants. He will have his fingerprints taken digitally and a photo of him will be uploaded into the court records but not released to the public.
