Justice Department lawyers and New York City Mayor Eric Adams are set to face a federal judge who is signaling that he's unlikely to rubber stamp their request to drop corruption charges weeks before an April trial.

Four top New York City officials resigned on Monday in an apparent protest against Adams’ growing cooperation with the Trump administration since the federal corruption charges against him were dropped.

Four top deputies in Eric Adams’ administration submitted their resignations Monday, in the latest sign of the New York City mayor’s cratering support among rank-and-file workers and the city’s elected officials.
