The nation’s top law enforcement officer has appointed an interim head of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for Arizona.
Timothy Courchaine joined the office in 2020 after serving as a law clerk for state Supreme Court Justice Bill Montgomery.
Before then, Courchaine was a judge advocate in the Marine Corps.
President Donald Trump may nominate someone for the permanent role, and they have to be confirmed by the Senate.
