The Supreme Court on Monday denied former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page's petition to continue his lawsuit against former FBI Director James Comey and seven other FBI officials.

Page filed the lawsuit following a Justice Department inspector general report that identified numerous problems with FBI surveillance applications targeting him during the Trump-Russia investigation. The suit named Comey and former deputy director Andrew McCabe among the defendants.

In April, Page reached a $1.25 million settlement with the federal government regarding his claims against the government itself. However, his separate lawsuit against the individual FBI officials remained unresolved.

The Supreme Court's decision not to hear the case effectively ends Page's legal pursuit against the former FBI leadership. The Court provided no explanation for declining to take up the matter, which is standard practice for such denials.

Meanwhile, the Senate Intelligence Committee is preparing to hold a confirmation hearing this week for Jay Clayton, President Trump's nominee for director of national intelligence. The hearing comes as lawmakers continue searching for solutions to revive the government's warrantless surveillance authority under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which expired on June 12 after Congress failed to renew it.
