A federal appeals court has ordered Judge Emmet Sullivan to dismiss the case against former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn, a surprising conclusion in a long-running political fight.
A federal appeals court on Wednesday ordered Judge Emmet Sullivan to dismiss the case against former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn, a possible conclusion to a long-running political fight.
Despite Flynn twice pleading guilty for lying to the FBI about his conversations with then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak during the presidential transition, the Justice Department moved last month to dismiss the case against him. Sullivan did not immediately act, instead asking for a review of the decision. If unchallenged with further appeals, the ruling exonerates Flynn after he sought to change his plea and claimed innocence.
