A federal judge ruled that the Justice Department illegally fired former New York federal prosecutor Maurene Comey, ordering her reinstatement and back pay for part of 2025. She argued she was dismissed because of her father, James Comey, a Trump critic, and her perceived political views. The department disagreed and said it would appeal.
