DOJ looks to dismiss lawsuit filed by ex-prosecutor Maurene Comey over her firing

The Justice Department will seek to move or dismiss a lawsuit filed by former prosecutor Maurene Comey over her "unlawful and unconstitutional" firing from the office where she prosecuted Sean Combs, Ghislaine Maxwell and other high-profile defendants, according to a new court filing.

The daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, Maurene Comey was considered a star trial lawyer in the Manhattan prosecutor's office but was abruptly fired in July. Her lawsuit, filed in September, said that "Defendants did not identify any cause or provide Ms. Comey any due process for her removal."

The DOJ's filing said the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York recused itself from the case, which will now be handled by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of New York, which is led by a loyalist of President Donald Trump with no prior experience as a prosecutor.

The government was supposed to respond to Comey's lawsuit by Nov. 21 but the new office assigned to the case asked for an extension "to familiarize ourselves with this matter."
