Flynn’s decision comes less than two weeks after the committee issued a subpoena for Flynn’s documents as part of the panel’s investigation into Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election.

Legal experts have said Flynn was unlikely to turn over the personal documents without immunity because he would be waiving some of his Constitutional protections by doing so. Flynn has previously sought immunity from “unfair prosecution” to cooperate with the committee.
