Manafort's lawsuit against Mueller thrown out

https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/judge-dismisses-paul-manaforts-lawsuit-against-mueller-justice-department/


Former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort responded to his indictment by Special Counsel Robert Mueller by fighting back big time. Not only did he seek to get the charges against him dismissed, he sued Mueller and the U.S. Department of Justice, claiming that the DOJ exceeded their authority when they put Mueller in place, and that Mueller went outside his own authority by charging Manafort. The judge in Manafort’s civil case said that bringing the lawsuit is not the way to go about fighting this, however, and dismissed the case on Friday.
