Tension over Evidence Builds Between Comey Team and Federal Prosecutors as January Trial Looms
Judge Michael S. Nachmanoff denied extended deadlines and ordered prosecutors to provide all evidence by October 13, keeping the trial on schedule for January 2026.
- A federal judge ruled in favor of James Comey, saying he should have open access to evidence for his trial. This decision came after prosecutors sought a protective order to limit his access, fearing he might leak information to the media.
- James Comey has been indicted on one count of making false statements and one count of obstruction of justice related to his Senate testimony about alleged leaks from the Justice Department. Legal experts have criticized the indictment as weak.
- U.S. District Judge Michael S. Nachmanoff noted that the proposed limitations by the Justice Department were overbroad and lacked sufficient detail. He emphasized that Comey's ability to prepare for his defense should not be unnecessarily delayed.
- The trial is scheduled for January 5, with pretrial motions due later this month. Comey has pleaded not guilty to both charges, and the case is closely watched due to its political implications.
