Letitia James ‘Heartened’ After Judge Dismisses DOJ Lawsuit Against Her
HuffPost
"I am ... grateful for the prayers and support I have received from around the country," the New York attorney general said.
New York Attorney General Letitia James breathed a sigh of relief Monday after a U.S. district judge dismissed indictments against her and former FBI Director James Comey.
Judge Cameron Currie, a Bill Clinton appointee, dismissed the lawsuits on the grounds that Lindsey Halligan, formerly an insurance lawyer connected with President Donald Trump, wasn’t lawfully appointed to her position as a U.S. attorney.
Although the judge dismissed the case without prejudice, meaning it could be filed again, James was happy with the course of events, based on a post she made on social media, shortly after the dismissal:
James, who successfully prosecuted a civil lawsuit against Trump for defrauding bankers about his net worth, was indicted on allegations of bank fraud last month after the president demanded Attorney General Pam Bondi prosecute his political enemies.
The now-dismissed suit accused James of misrepresenting information on official paperwork about two properties she owned — a townhouse in Brooklyn, New York, and a house in Norfolk, Virginia.
