A federal judge found this year that Halligan was unlawfully appointed as an interim U.S. attorney.

Former Justice Department official Lindsey Halligan, the Trump loyalist with no prosecutorial experience who brought failed cases against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James, is under investigation by the Florida Bar, a bar official said in a letter.

The bar official wrote in a short letter to a nonprofit watchdog group, the Campaign for Accountability, that the bar had “an investigation pending” into Halligan.

The Campaign for Accountability had said that by falsely claiming to be a U.S. attorney, Halligan committed a variety of ethical violations. It filed complaints with both the Florida and the Virginia bars in November, and it followed up with the Florida Bar last month.
