Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg dropped an appeal he filed after a federal judge ruled that an ex-prosecutor in his office can be subpoenaed
by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio).

Bragg dropped the appeal Friday, after the parties came to an agreement on
a testimony from former prosecutor Mark Pomerantz to the House Judiciary Committee.

The agreement stipulates that a lawyer from Bragg's office will be present
at the testimony who can make objections.

"Our successful stay of this subpoena blocked the immediate deposition and afforded us the time necessary to coordinate with the House Judiciary
Committee on an agreement that protects the District Attorney’s privileges
and interests. We are pleased with this resolution, which ensures any questioning of our former employee will take place in the presence of our General Counsel on a reasonable, agreed upon timeframe. We are gratified
that the Second Circuit’s ruling provided us with the opportunity to successfully resolve this dispute," a Manhattan DA spokesperson said in a statement.

A spokesperson for Jordan said that Pomerantz's deposition will take place
on May 12.

"This evening, the Manhattan District Attorney's Office withdrew its
appeal in Bragg v. Jordan. Mr. Pomerantz's deposition will go forward on
May 12, and we look forward to his appearance," Jordan's spokesperson
said.

U.S. District Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil rejected Bragg's request Wednesday
asking for a temporary restraining order and injunction after Jordan
issued a subpoena to Pomerantz.

Bragg immediately appealed the ruling Wednesday and wanted a stay of the ruling.

The Manhattan DA accused Jordan in a federal lawsuit that he's trying to intimidate him because of the prosecution of former President Donald
Trump.
