DOJ appealing cases due to prosecutor’s appointment.

The Justice Department will appeal decisions dismissing criminal cases against James Comey and Letitia James due to the unlawfully appointed prosecutor, Lindsey Halligan. The White House and Attorney Pam Bondi indicated the Trump administration’s intent to seek a review from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit. Halligan’s appointment was ruled unlawful, leading to the dismissal of charges against Comey and James, with attempts to secure new indictments failing. Grand juries have refused to re-indict James, while limitations may prevent a new indictment for Comey.
