Lindsey Halligan is no longer employed by the Justice Department after departure from Virginia U.S. attorney’s office

Donald Trump loyalist Lindsey Halligan, a former insurance lawyer who filed two unsuccessful lawsuits against two of the president’s alleged enemies, is no longer a Justice Department employee, two sources familiar with the matter told NBC News.

Halligan, who had no prior prosecutorial experience, resigned last week from her proclaimed role as acting U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, a position a judge ruled she held illegally. It was not entirely clear last week whether Halligan would take on a new role at the Justice Department, as Alina Habba did after federal appeals court judges upheld her disqualification as acting U.S. attorney for New Jersey in December.

But two sources familiar with the matter said Halligan is no longer a Justice Department employee. It’s unclear if she has a new job outside the Justice Department.

A federal judge ruled last week that Halligan must stop impersonating the top federal prosecutor in the Eastern District.

U.S. District Judge David Novak, Trump’s 2019 nominee, said he would allow Halligan to avoid attorney disciplinary proceedings aimed at determining whether she misrepresented herself in court “in light of her inexperience.”

“The Court recognizes that Ms. Halligan does not have the prosecutorial experience that has long been the standard for appointees to the position of United States Attorney in this District,” he wrote in an opinion last week. “Therefore, and in light of her inexperience, the Court gives Ms. Halligan the benefit of the doubt and refrains from referring her for further investigation and disciplinary action regarding her misrepresentations before this Court at this time.”

Habba and Halligan had previously served as personal attorneys to the president, as had other senior Justice Department officials.
