 AUTHORITY OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL TO MAKE SUCCESSIVE DESIGNATIONS OF INTERIM UNITED STATES MARSHALS
Similar to the marshal vacancy statute, the United States attorney vacancy statute authorizes the Attorney General to "appoint a United States attorney for the district in which the office.
The language of these statutes supports the view that the Attorney General may delegate the authority to perform all of the functions of a United States marshal to a deputy marshal, without regard to whether that deputy marshal, or anyone else, has been serving as an interim marshal for the district, pursuant to § 562.
Allowing the Attorney General to make potentially unlimited delegations of the authority to act as a marshal, such an argument might conclude, could displace the process of appointment by the President and advice and consent by the Senate.
