A national judicial panel has indicted Letitia James for bank fraud this past Thursday, per someone with knowledge of the case.

Lindsey Halligan personally presented the case before the judicial panel on Thursday, according to the source.

Federal prosecutors seldom appear before such panels.

Halligan took over the position last month following the president became frustrated with the pace of investigations targeting political opponents.

This step is the president’s latest effort to leverage federal justice authorities to target adversaries.

It follows two weeks following Halligan secured charges against James Comey.

Long-serving lawyers drafted a memorandum in that case explaining why charges were not warranted.

Comey denied the charges this past Wednesday.
