Trump-Appointed Prosecutor Sigal Chattah Loses Appeals Court Fight
In the 2025 ruling disqualifying Chattah, Judge David Campbell established that under federal law, the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada could have appointed its own interim U.S. Attorney after Chattah. Instead, Campbell ruled that such “procedure was not followed” by the Trump Administration.
Nevada senators renew criticism of Chattah
Before joining the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Chattah served as Nevada’s Republican National Committeewoman. Her appointment as acting U.S. attorney for Nevada last year was criticized by Democratic senators.
Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto described Chattah on social media as “an election denier who has advocated for political violence, suggested she would target her political enemies, and offered full support to many of [President] Trump’s blatantly illegal actions in office.”
Sen. Jacky Rosen alleged on X that “Sigal Chattah is an extremist with a record of violent rhetoric who is deeply unfit for this role.”
