DOJ asks judge to vacate Federal Reserve subpoena decisions

Pirro plans to seek vacatur after Boasberg quashed subpoenas tied to the Fed renovation probe, a move that may drop a demand for records.

  • U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro has abandoned her plan to appeal a decision blocking subpoenas to the Federal Reserve in a criminal investigation of Chair Jerome Powell.
  • Pirro plans to file a motion to vacate the order by Judge Boasberg that quashed her subpoenas, aiming to reopen grand jury investigations.
  • Judge Boasberg ruled against Pirro due to lack of specific evidence and concerns that the subpoenas aimed to harass Powell over interest rate disputes.
  • Powell stated he will remain on the Federal Reserve board until the legal issues are resolved, while Pirro awaits an inspector general report to decide on reopening her investigation.
