DOJ loses bid to move Michael Flynn malicious prosecution suit to DC

Just The News:

Afederal judge has rejected the Department of Justice’s request to move legal proceedings over former Trump National Security Advisor Michael Flynn’s malicious prosecution claims to Washington, D.C.

“In sum, the Court concludes that the interests of justice weigh against transfer of this case to the DDC. Plaintiff is entitled to seek redress in his home forum, and Defendant’s Motion presents no overwhelming need to disturb that choice,” wrote District Judge Mary Scriven in a June 12 order. “The only party who would clearly be inconvenienced by relocation of this action to the DDC is Plaintiff, who would be forced to litigate outside of his home state. The Government is not over burdened by litigating here.” MORE HERE
