"Marginalizing the Court in the selection and monitoring of the independent monitor as the plea agreement does undermines public confidence in Boeing's probation," O'Connor wrote in an order published Thursday.
"It is in the utmost interest of justice that the public is confident this monitor selection is done based solely on competency," O'Connor wrote in his ruling.
The parties' DEI efforts only serve to undermine this confidence in the Government and Boeing's ethics and anti-fraud efforts," O'Connor stated.
Judge O'Connor's decision is seen as a victory for family members of those killed in the crashes of Boeing 737 Max jets, who argued the deal was too lenient.
