A federal judge has disqualified Nevada's acting U.S. Attorney, Sigal Chattah, from several cases, ruling she has held the temporary position longer than legally permitted. U.S. District Judge David G. Campbell sided with defense lawyers, stating Chattah's authority expired.

The judge stressed that Congress's intent was not to allow extended temporary appointments.
