HR 4984 United States House · 119th Congress

No Appointments by Rogue Judges Act

HR 4984, titled the "No Appointments by Rogue Judges Act," amends Section 546 of title 28, U.S. Code, which governs vacancies for U.S. Attorneys. It updates the time limit for filling these vacancies to reference the expiration of time limits in section 3346 of the U.S. Code and removes an existing subsection (d) from the law. This change directly affects the process for filling U.S. Attorney positions nationwide, impacting how quickly vacancies can be addressed by the Department of Justice. The bill makes a procedural adjustment to appointment rules without altering substantive qualifications or authority.
