221 Appointments Clause - Comey and James Indictments DISMISSED


Listen Later

In a stunning legal development, federal indictments against both New York AG Letitia James and former FBI Director James Comey have been dismissed on the same day.Host James Betzold breaks down the twin opinions from the Eastern District of Virginia, which rule that the "Interim U.S. Attorney" who signed both indictments—Lindsey Halligan—was appointed illegally. We analyze the timeline of the "botched hand-off" between the Attorney General and the District Courts, the specific failure of 28 U.S.C. § 546, and the "Comey Twist": a Statute of Limitations issue that might make his dismissal permanent.#LegalNews #Justice #Law #CourtCase #Indictment #BreakingNews #LawPodcast #Politics #LegalUpdate #Dismissed #Lawyer #Attorney #LegalCommunity #JusticeForAll #JamesComey #ComeyCase #ComeyIndictment #FBI #USPolitics #Trump #DOJSponsor: This episode is brought to you by Prima.Law—The modern case management platform built by immigration attorneys, for immigration attorneys.
