Eric Adams has just intensified the impulse to obtain its accusation of corruption.

Eric Adams has just added a new wrinkle to The ongoing saga about the commitment of the Trump Department of Justice to dismiss your case. As a reminder, the Department of Justice moved to rule out the democrat’s corruption accusation “Without prejudice” – That would give the Republican Administration Leverage to relive the case In the future: a crucial condition that Adams did not oppose a audience last week.

But the Mayor of New York City, who has been politically aligned with the White House on the application of immigration, now argues that his case must be fired forever, or “with prejudice.”

Before Adams raising the argument In a motion Wednesday, the United States District Judge, Dale Ho, had designated a third party To help explore more completely the dismissal offer of “without prejudice” of the Department of Justice because, without Adams opposing, there were no adverse evidence, since there is generally in the US legal system. These newly requested legal arguments have not yet arrived: Judge Ho ordered them in writing on March 7, with a possible oral argument that will continue on March 14.

But now with Adams’s motion, the judge appointed by Biden has a new aspect to consider. He affirms the fiscal misconduct in the consequences of the resignations of federal prosecutors who rejected the order of Trump’s DAJ lawyer, Emil Bove, to move to dismiss the case without prejudice. Among other things, the Mayor’s lawyers cited what they called “filtered” letters of those prosecutors who exploited the Bove movement.

“In addition to violating the fundamental constitutional rights of Mayor Adams and the ability to receive a fair trial, government leaks violated numerous legal and judicial rules, including long -date policies of the Department of Justice aimed at curbing misjection behavior,” , they wrote in the motion to judge, concluding: “The most appropriate resource is to dismiss this case now and do it with prejudice. “

So how does this last movement affect the pending motion to rule out without prejudice?

One of the interesting questions is what the DOJ led by Bove will say if the judge asks the Government to evaluate the last Adams request. Would that turn the procedure into a more adversary?

It seems that it is, unless Bove is ready to give up the political leverage that apparently encouraged the offer for a dismissal of “without prejudice” to begin with.

As is, the case is not yet ruled out, but now there is a new argument at stake for as It must be dismissed, and that distinction could make a difference on how the case progresses. In fact, if Adams succeeds in its last motion, it will not advance at all.
