The Justice Department accused federal Judge James Boasberg of misconduct over remarks allegedly made to Chief Justice John Roberts during a March Judicial Conference meeting.

The Justice Department on Monday filed a misconduct complaint against U.S. District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg, who has sparred with the Trump administration for months over its deportations of Venezuelan men to El Salvador.

U.S. District Judge James Boasberg found cause to initiate contempt proceedings to determine whether the Trump administration violated court orders.
