Nevada Prosecutor Ruling: Judge Sides Against Trump Appointee

A Nevada judge ruled that Sigal Chattah, the interim U.S. attorney, is serving illegally. U.S. District Judge David Campbell sided with criminal defendants who argued the Justice Department improperly maneuvered Chattah into an "acting" role to bypass legal term limits. The judge barred Chattah from supervising their cases, citing the Federal Vacancies Reform Act. This ruling is the second instance where a Trump administration prosecutor has been partially sidelined by a judge.
