(The Center Square) —  A federal appeals court has upheld a ruling blocking the U.S. Department of Justice from subpoenaing records from New York Attorney General Letitia James' office about her investigations.

In a 2-1 ruling Friday, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a lower court's decision to bar interim U.S. attorney for the Northern District of New York John Sarcone from investigating James' office for possible misconduct in civil lawsuits against President Trump and the National Rifle Association.
