Her status as the top federal prosecutor was questioned by three criminal defendants who challenged the legality of her appointment as acting U.S. attorney this summer.<\/p>\n<p>A federal district judge ruled in August that Habba had been <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/alina-habba-new-jersey-us-attorney-unlawfully-judge-rules\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">serving without lawful authority<\/a><\/span> since the beginning of July. Last week, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/alina-habba-appeals-court-us-attorney-trump\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">upheld<\/a><\/span>\u00a0that decision disqualifying Habba.<\/p>\n<p>Bondi criticized that ruling, saying the judges who decided the case &#8220;should not be able to countermand the president&#8217;s choice of attorneys entrusted with carrying out the executive branch&#8217;s core responsibility of prosecuting crime.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/alina-habba-trump-us-attorney-new-jersey\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">announced in March<\/a><\/span> that he had tapped Habba to serve as the interim U.S. attorney in New Jersey. The law invoked by the Trump administration allowed her to hold the role for 120 days, though she could continue for longer if the U.S. district court in the state extended her tenure or if the Senate approved her nomination for U.S. attorney.<\/p>\n<p>But ahead of the 120-day deadline, the district court judges in New Jersey declined to keep Habba in the role and instead voted to install her deputy, Desiree Leigh Grace, as U.S. attorney. That decision, however, set off a leadership scramble after Bondi fired Grace.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump and top administration officials then employed a multi-step maneuver to keep Habba as the top federal prosecutor in New Jersey and get around the district court&#8217;s decision.<\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration has installed temporary U.S. attorneys in Virginia, Nevada and California using similar mechanisms, but continues to face resistance from federal courts. Judges overseeing challenges to all three appointments, including\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/james-comey-case-dismissed-judge-lindsey-halligan\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Lindsey Halligan<\/a><\/span>\u00a0in Virginia, have ruled that the appointments were unlawful.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Halligan had secured indictments against two of Mr. Trump&#8217;s political foes, former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James, while serving as the top federal prosecutor for the Eastern District of Virginia. But a judge ordered the cases to be dismissed last month after concluding Halligan was unlawfully appointed to the role.<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!--
