Michael Flynn's sentencing back in limbo amid latest legal dispute.
The fate of President Donald Trump's former national security adviser Michael Flynn was thrown into legal limbo on Wednesday as federal prosecutors expressed new doubts about his pledge to cooperate with their investigative efforts -- a core condition of Flynn's plea agreement on charges he lied to the FBI during the Russia probe.
On Tuesday, Sullivan asked in a court order how the switch from cooperating witness to conspirator in that case could impact Mueller's position that Flynn should be spared prison time. The prosecutors in Flynn's case declined to speculate, saying they wanted to postpone their assessment until Kian's trial has unfolded.
The decision apparently surprised Flynn and Powell, a confidant told ABC News. And Flynn's counsel protested the government's move in court filings, saying the prosecutors' previous position"could not have been more deliberate or clear."
