Floyd v. Department of Justice
Case Overview
Fired Jan. 6 prosecutor Andrew Floyd and civil rights organizations challenge DOJ's $1.776 billion Anti-Weaponization Fund as an unconstitutional end-run around Congress's spending power. Judge Brinkema granted a TRO (May 29) and preliminary injunction (June 12) blocking the fund. DOJ refused to file sworn declarations that the fund is dead. Case proceeds to discovery.
The Application
Plaintiffs (a fired Jan. 6 prosecutor and civil rights organizations) challenged the fund as an unconstitutional circumvention of Congress's appropriations power. The district court granted both a TRO (May 29) and preliminary injunction (June 12), indicating likelihood of success on the merits and irreparable harm from the fund's operation.
The Conclusion
The Anti-Weaponization Fund is currently blocked by preliminary injunction pending discovery. The DOJ's refusal to file sworn declarations confirming the fund's termination leaves enforcement and remedial issues contested.
