Justice Dept. Challenges Order in Comey Investigation

The Justice Department is contesting a court order that hinders their investigation into former FBI Director James Comey. The order prevents prosecutors from accessing computer files belonging to Daniel Richman, a close friend of Comey and a key figure in the potential case. Richman had filed a motion seeking the return of his files, which the Justice Department had obtained during a media leak investigation. The judge sided with Richman, issuing a temporary restraining order, and the Justice Department is now challenging this order, claiming Richmans request is an attempt to suppress evidence.
