L.A. prosecutor faces new challenge

The 9th Circuit Court ruled that an unconfirmed official cannot legally serve as the top U.S. attorney by simply adopting a new title with full powers.

The Justice Department plans to appeal the decision to the Supreme Court, and the ruling raises questions about the legality of such appointment tactics used to bypass Senate confirmation.
