The Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit AFFIRMS "the dismissal with prejudice of the claims against the other defendants, both sanctions orders, and the denials of the reconsideration and disqualification motions."
"These four consolidated appeals concern five separate orders. In 2022, between his terms of office, President Donald Trump filed a lawsuit against dozens of defendants, alleging several claims, including two under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act and three under Florida law."
"The district court dismissed the amended complaint with prejudice for failure to state a claim. On the defendants’ motions, the district court also entered sanctions against Trump and his attorneys, under Rule 11 and under its inherent authority."
In this video, I take you through Judge Currie's order dismissing the case of United States v. James Comey page by page.
An appeal of the order is a near certainty, but it’s not a given that the case can be refiled even though it was dismissed without prejudice.
We are well past the SOL and the invalid charging instrument did not preserve the option to refile under 18 USC 3288.
If any other prosecutor from EDVA would have signed the indictment, the case would not be dismissed even with Halligan’s appointment being invalidated.
But because Halligan was the ONLY prosecutor to sign it and her appointment is unlawful (according to the order), the case is dismissed.
Another filing from Halligan seeking to clarify the grand jury proceedings that have been the focus of scrutiny over recent days and really, since day one in this case—as the just-filed Transcript of Return of Grand Jury Indictment Proceedings shows.
For reference, here are the "no true bill" 3-count and the "true bill" 2-count indictments.
As you can see, Count Two and, uh, the other Count Two of the 3-count are IDENTICAL to Count One and Count Two of the 2-count.
Both were filed, as both were presented in open court.
The notice accompanying the transcript says
"The official transcript of the September 25, 2025, proceedings before Magistrate Judge Vaala conclusively refutes [the] claim [that there was an issue with the grand jury voting process] and establishes that the grand jury voted on—and true-billed—the two-count indictment."
