Judge-Picked Prosecutor Sues Over Firing | Lubbock News
Description
In a jaw-dropping legal twist, Seattle’s top federal prosecutor, Roger Rogoff, was sworn in — then fired less than an hour later. Appointed by district judges to fill a vacant U.S. attorney role, Rogoff is now suing, claiming the President overstepped constitutional bounds by removing him. The Justice Department counters that the President has full authority to fire interim appointees — even those chosen by judges — sparking a high-stakes showdown that could reshape how executive and judicial power clash over Justice Department leadership.
