【环球时报报道 记者 周扬】当地时间11月24日，美国联邦地区法院法官柯里以负责主导两项案件的检 察官琳赛·哈利根的任命程序违法为由，撤销了美政府对前联邦调查局（FBI）局长詹姆斯·科米和纽约 州总检察长利蒂希娅·詹姆斯的刑事起诉。据美国《华盛顿邮报》报道，柯里在书面意见中强调："所有 因哈利根女士存在缺陷的任命而引发的行为，都构成非法行使行政权力，必须予以撤销。" 美媒称，虽然柯里撤销了所有当前指控，但无法阻止司法部未来更换检察官重新提起诉讼。不过，柯里 也指出，诉讼存在时效问题。科米被指控在2020年向国会作证时可能作伪证，但相关罪名的起诉时效在 他被起诉的当日就已逼近时限。法官暗示，司法部企图通过"临时起诉"来略过时效问题的做法"为时已 晚"，因此外界普遍认为科米案几乎不可能重启。科米的律师菲茨杰拉德更表示，在任命违法事实已被 确认的情况下，案件不存在重新起诉的法律空间。 美联社称，对哈利根任命提出的法律挑战只是科米和詹姆斯对起诉展开的多方面抗辩之一，两人都声称 这些起诉具有报复性质，是司法部被"政治化武器化"的典型表现。裁决公布后，科米在一段视频声明中 表示："我很感激法院结束了对我的指控，这是一起出 ...
