A lawsuit that takes aim at special counsel Robert Mueller was seemingly dealt a blow Thursday when a judge ruled against a request by the plaintiff Jerome Corsi.
Corsi, a conservative author and journalist, sued Mueller last month over claims the head of the Russia investigation is ordering surveillance against him and harassing his family. Corsi and his attorney Larry Klayman asked for District Court Judge Richard Leon to hear the case, but Leon denied the request.
According to The Hill, Leon told Klayman and Corsi that his presiding over the case would “undermine” the normal process that assigns cases to judges at random.
