Justice Department Files Complaint Against Judge James Boasberg Over Alleged Misconduct

UNITED STATES, JUL 29 – The DOJ alleges Judge Boasberg made biased public comments risking judicial impartiality and seeks his removal from a key deportation case, amid claims of administration contempt.

  • The U.S. Justice Department filed a misconduct complaint on Monday against Chief Judge James Boasberg over improper public comments about President Trump.
  • The complaint stems from Boasberg's March remarks to Chief Justice Roberts and other judges, alleging the Trump administration might act in bad faith.
  • The Justice Department asks the Court of Appeals to investigate, seeks reassignment of Boasberg’s cases on Venezuelan migrant deportations, and proposes disciplinary actions if misconduct is found.
  • Attorney General Pam Bondi stated on social media that Boasberg's remarks have damaged public confidence in the judiciary and emphasized that such behavior will not be tolerated.
  • This rare formal complaint highlights escalating tensions between the Trump administration and the judiciary, where only 15 federal judges have ever been impeached since 1803.
