In 1973 , the Justice Department charged Trump and his father with violations of the Fair Housing Act .

The case was drowning in evidence of systematic racial discrimination.

Trump charged the FBI with using Gestapo -like tactics in working up the case.

The federal judge dismissed the counterclaim two months after it was filed, noting that $100 million was a "tidy sum".

The search was upheld by the US Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit .

The Justice Department has 180 days to review the claim, after which the case could proceed in federal court.

Professor Larry Tribe of Harvard Law School expressed the immediate reaction of most lawyers: " Trump ’s lawsuit seeking $ 100 M in damages from DOJ for the Mar-a-Lago search is utterly frivolous".
