Former FBI Director James Comey on Tuesday filed a notice to the court in which he declared he would challenge the legality of the prosecutor responsible for his alleged false statement case, who was appointed by President Donald Trump last month.
Comey was indicted on charges last month of making false statements to Congress and obstruction of a congressional proceeding. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The Department of Justice indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James last Thursday over allegations of fraud.
A grand jury reportedly approved the charges, according to The Guardian.
The indictment followed Federal Housing and Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte making a criminal referral to the Department of Justice, alleging that James falsified bank documents.
