Legal Ruling Supports Rule of Law in Attorney Conflict

Federal judge ruled John Sarcone III is unlawfully serving as acting United States attorney for Northern District of New York due to bypassing statutory requirements.
Judge Lorna Schofield quashed subpoenas issued by Sarcone to New York State Attorney General Letitia James.
Letitia James challenged Sarcone's authority, alleging retaliation after he issued subpoenas to her office.
The ruling is seen as a win for the rule of law, with Attorney General's spokesperson stating they'll continue defending their litigation.
