He also ordered the office of the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York to halt the ongoing investigation into the mayor's conduct — at least for now. Bove said prosecutors should review the case sometime after the November mayoral election to see if the charges should be revived. Instead, the high-profile prosecution — the first against a sitting New York City mayor — has “improperly interfered” with Adams' reelection campaign, he said.

And while judges and prosecutors do sometimes adjust the timing of a trial or an indictment to avoid the appearance that they are interfering in with an election, it is extremely rare to drop an existing case entirely for that reason.Not quite. Bove’s letter says the case should be dismissed without prejudice, giving prosecutors the flexibility to refile charges at a later date.
