US Attorney Extension Questioned by Senator

Matt Renner reports: "When Debra Wong Yang resigned from her position as US Attorney for the Central District of California in November, 2006, the Bush administration did not appoint a replacement. Instead, her second-in-command, Chief Assistant US Attorney George Cardona took over the office. Under the Federal Vacancies Reform Act, Cardona became acting US attorney until a presidential appointment could be made. Under the Act, his temporary term was limited to 210 days. No replacement has yet been named and Cardona's term is set to expire Saturday."
