A federal judge is set to decide the fate of Alina Habba, a US Attorney appointed by the Trump administration, after ruling that her appointment was unlawful. The judge's decision comes after a legal battle that has played out in courtrooms across the country.

Alina Habba's appointment as US Attorney for New Jersey has been marred by controversy since she was first appointed by former President Trump. Critics have argued that her appointment was politically motivated and violated legal requirements for federal prosecutors.

In a recent ruling, the federal judge overseeing the case determined that Habba's appointment was indeed unlawful, and that she should be removed from her position as US Attorney. The judge's decision is seen as a victory for those who have been pushing for accountability in the Trump administration's appointments.

Habba's fate now rests in the hands of the judge, who will determine whether she will be allowed to continue serving as US Attorney or if she will be removed from her position. The outcome of this case could have far-reaching implications for the legality of future appointments made by political administrations.
