New York City Mayor Eric Adams is set to brief reporters Wednesday afternoon — the same day a federal judge dismissed his criminal corruption case.

The decision, citing prejudice, ensures the charges cannot be refiled. 

The ruling comes after the Department of Justice (DOJ) requested the case — in which Adams was facing a range of charges alleging corruption based on allegations that for years he solicited and accepted bribes from wealthy foreign businesspeople — be dropped. Several DOJ officials resigned over the request.

The embattled mayor was indicted in September on five counts, including bribery, conspiracy to commit wire fraud and solicitation of a contribution by a foreign national.

The press conference is scheduled to begin at 12:15 p.m. EDT.
