Federal Reserve Urges Judge to Be Firm Denying DOJ Subpoena

The Federal Reserve asked a judge to stand firm in his decision to dismiss two Justice Department subpoenas seeking information about building-renovation cost overruns tied to the administration’s legal fight with Chair Jerome Powell.

The central bank asked US District Chief Judge James Boasberg to reject a request by US Attorney Jeanine Pirro to reconsider his ruling to quash the grand jury subpoenas.
