24.11.2025 19:39 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0The Government responds that the Attorney Generalβs ratification was proper because she could have βpersonally obtain[ed] a new indictmentβ on October 31 βusing [the] grace periodβ set forth in 18 U.S.C. Β§ 3288. ECF No. 137 at 29. That statute provides in part: Whenever an indictment or information charging a felony is dismissed for any reason after the period prescribed by the applicable statute of limitations has expired, a new indictment may be returned in the appropriate jurisdiction within six calendar months of the date of the dismissal of the indictment or information. Generally, β[t]he return of an indictment tolls the statute of limitations on the charges contained in the indictment.β United States v. Ojedokun, 16 F.4th 1091, 1109 (4th Cir. 2021). βAn invalid indictment,β however, βcannot serve to block the door of limitations as it swings closed.β United States v. Crysopt Corp., 781 F. Supp. 375, 378 (D. Md. 1991) (emphasis in original); see also United States v. Gillespie, 666 F. Supp. 1137, 1141 (N.D. Ill. 1987) (β[A] valid indictment insulates from statute-of-limitations problems any refiling of the same charges during the pendency of that valid indictment (that is, the superseding of a valid indictment). But if the earlier indictment is void, there is no legitimate peg on which to hang such a judicial limitations-tolling result.β.
Judge Currie explained in a footnote why there is no six-month grace period in Comey's case.

Is this significant?
Also, has anyone else noticed that the signature page (p.2) of the final indictment (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...) is LITERALLY A PHOTOCOPY of the signature page (p.4) of the original indictment (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...)?

Also, has anybody pointed out yet that the signature page (p.2) of the true bill (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...) is a literal photocopy of the sig page (p.4) of the "count 1 only" doc (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...)?
This is where Vaala said, "It has your signature on it."
Hey @kenwhite.bsky.social β did you see that today Halligan filed a notice to the court to state that the full GJ *did* vote on the two-count indictment, in apparent contradiction to her testimony yesterday? How's *that* gonna fly?
