  1. The hearing did not go as prosecutors had planned. Judge Quraishi grew frustrated with the office’s head of appeals, Mark Coyne, who had not formally disclosed that he would appear, & fiercely interrogated a more junior prosecutor about whether the former interim #USattorney, #AlinaHabba, still had some role in operating the office.

    Judge Quraishi eventually threw Coyne out.

  2. US District Judge Matthew Brann said that a trio of #DOJ lawyers who have been leading the office since late last year had been unlawfully serving in their positions. AG #PamBondi appointed them after Brann disqualified #AlinaHabba, #Trump’s previous choice for #USattorney in NJ, in August amid similar questions over the legality of her appointment.

  3. Trio named to replace #AlinaHabba as #USattorney is also serving illegally, judge says

    A federal judge upended the leadership of New Jersey’s US attorney’s office again Monday, ruling for the second time in less than a year that the #Trump admin had illegally sought to bypass #Congress & install its own picks to head the prominent prosecutorial outpost.
