Judge Rules Pam Bondi’s US Attorney Appointments Illegal
A federal judge has ruled that three prosecutors appointed by Donald Trump’s administration to lead the New Jersey attorney general’s office after the prior appointee’s disqualification were also illegally appointed. The judge stated that these appointments, made by acting Attorney General Pam Bondi, repeated the same error of bypassing required Senate confirmation. This ruling, stemming from challenges by criminal defendants, warns that continuing with unconfirmed leadership could lead to the dismissal of pending cases.
