Appeals court halts reinstatement of US Attorney fired by Trump

Original: Rogoff out again: Federal appeals court halts reinstatement of US Attorney fired by Trump

A federal appeals court has blocked the reinstatement of US Attorney Rogoff, who was fired by President Trump. The ruling keeps the prosecutor out of the post after a lower court had ordered him back, prolonging a legal fight over the president's authority to remove federal prosecutors. The decision adds to ongoing disputes over Trump's personnel actions and the limits of executive power.

Why now: The ruling is a fresh development in a high-profile legal battle over Trump's firings of federal officials.
