This news dropped on Wednesday: Teddy Hertzberg is the new interim United States Attorney in the Northern District of Georgia. You’ll find the DOJ’s short press release here.

We believe that federal law will limit Hertzberg’s term to 120 days and will still require the United States Senate to confirm a permanent nominee later. But we’ve also heard that the president and attorney general intend to test that law in some districts. Watch this space.
