Judge orders DOJ to reinstate former federal prosecutor Maurene Comey, daughter of ex-FBI director

A federal judge ruled Monday that former Assistant U.S. Attorney Maurene Comey, daughter of ex-FBI Director James Comey, was 'unlawfully terminated' and ordered her reinstatement. The decision reverses her firing, which occurred amid broader DOJ personnel changes. The ruling is a setback for the administration's efforts to reshape the department, and Comey's reinstatement is expected to proceed.
