Did Judge Cannon amend her first ruling after being scolded by the 11th Circuit?

As I recall, she changed her ruling to say that the DOJ would have sole access to the "classified" documents? Is that not correct?

If so, would that not make moot the Trump argument to the Supreme Court?

I'm no lawyer, obviously, but I do seem to recall Judge Cannon amending her initial ruling about the documents?

When former President Donald Trump went to court against the Justice Department to stall the federal investigation into classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, a district judge he appointed, Aileen Cannon, granted Trump everything he asked for, appointing a special master to review the documents for executive privilege even though no legal precedent grants a former president privilege over national security documents, and effectively blocking the DOJ from conducting a national security review until the special master's work is complete.

Now, the special master himself, Senior Judge Raymond Dearie of Brooklyn, is rebuking Cannon for a decision that hamstrings a key function of the job she assigned him to do, in a filing published by Just Security. Specifically, he is taking issue with her rescinding his authority to issue interim reports as he conducts his review — and saying her reasoning for this made no sense.
