法官驳回司法部对詹姆斯·科米和莱蒂西亚·詹姆斯的指控 一名联邦法官驳回了对前联邦调查局局长詹姆斯·科米和纽约州总检察长莱蒂西亚·詹姆斯的指控，理由是负责起诉的检察官林赛·哈利根并非由地区法院任命，而是由总检察长非法任命。法官卡梅伦·麦克高恩·柯里表示，所有在哈利根无效任命下采取的行动都必须被撤销。虽然司法部可以寻求新的起诉，但目前尚不清楚是否会这样做，尤其是在科米的律师辩称提起诉讼的期限已过的情况下。 Judge dismisses DOJ charges against James Comey and Letitia James A federal judge dismissed charges against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James after ruling that Lindsey Halligan — the prosecutor who secured the indictments — was unlawfully appointed by the attorney general rather than by a district court. Judge Cameron McGowan Currie said all actions taken under Halligan’s invalid appointment must be thrown out. While the Justice Department could seek new indictments, it’s unclear if it will, especially since Comey’s lawyers argue the deadline for bringing charges has already expired.
