Washington (CNN) Fusion GPS, the intelligence firm behind the controversial Trump dossier, asked a federal court on Friday to stop its bank from turning over financial records subpoenaed by the House intelligence committee. Fusion GPS asserted in its filing Friday that Nunes did not give the firm required notice that he was subpoenaing the bank for its records. Chutkan also told the intelligence committee to file its response to a request by Fusion GPS for a restraining order from the court by 6 p.m. Monday. Florida Rep. Tom Rooney, a senior Republican on the committee, defended the decision to hold a hearing for the Fusion GPS partners. "Fusion GPS has cooperated with all legitimate inquiries into Russian interference in the 2016 election," Levy said following the subpoena.
