两名被告试图撤销指控,声称特别检察官的任命违反了联邦法律。 Two defendants seek to dismiss charges, claiming the special prosecutor’s appointment violated federal law.

司法部指控的两名被告要求一名联邦法官驳回他们的案件,理由是负责起诉的特别检察官是非法任命的。 Two defendants charged by the Justice Department are asking a federal judge to dismiss their cases, arguing that the special prosecutor leading the prosecutions was unlawfully appointed. 辩方声称该任命违反了联邦法律或程序规范,援引检察官先前在指控前联邦调查局局长James Coomey以及目前正在追查与Donald Trump有关的案件方面所起的作用。 The defense claims the appointment violated federal law or procedural norms, citing the prosecutor’s prior role in charging James Comey, former FBI director, and now pursuing cases linked to Donald Trump. 法官将听取关于这项质疑的论据,并作出可能影响起诉有效性的裁决,为今后的特别检察官任命开创先例。 The judge will hear arguments on the challenge, with a ruling that could impact the validity of the prosecutions and set a precedent for future special prosecutor appointments.
