A federal grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia declined to re-indict New York Attorney General Letitia James on Thursday. The grand jury decision came after a prior indictment was dismissed ten days earlier. The original indictment accused James of mortgage fraud. A judge tossed the earlier indictment after ruling that Acting U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan had been appointed illegally. With the prior charges vacated on procedural grounds, prosecutors sought to re-present the case, but the grand jury did not return a new indictment. The legal posture leaves James without active federal charges stemming from the mortgage-fraud allegation as of this development.
