A judge dismissed charges against Comey and James, ruling unlawful appointment of prosecutor.
A federal judge dismissed the criminal cases against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James, ruling that interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan was unlawfully appointed.
Judge Cameron McGowan Currie found that Halligan’s authority lapsed after the 120-day limit for interim appointments, making all actions she took—including the indictments—void.
The cases were dismissed without prejudice, allowing the government to refile them with a lawfully appointed prosecutor.
The ruling follows concerns about political interference, as Halligan, a former Trump lawyer with no prosecutorial experience, was installed after her predecessor resigned under pressure.
Comey and James welcomed the decision; the Justice Department plans to appeal.
