-
A federal judge dismissed the criminal cases against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James, ruling that the prosecutor who filed the charges had been unlawfully appointed. The ruling was issued on November 24, 2025, and generated widespread discussion about the use of DOJ processes in political prosecutions.[3][4][5]

The DOJ subsequently appealed the dismissal in December 2025, seeking to revive the cases, which indicates ongoing legal activity surrounding these indictments even after the initial dismissals.[2]
-
Coverage from major outlets and legal analysis programs highlighted the judge’s reasoning about improper appointment and its implications for Comey, James, and the broader use of prosecutorial power in politically charged cases.[10][3]
