Edward L. Stanton III (DOJ)

Attorney General Eric Holder is scheduled to attend the ceremonial investiture for the Western District of Tennessee U.S. Attorney on Friday, a Justice Department spokesman told Main Justice.

Edward L. Stanton III officially was sworn in as the Memphis-based U.S. Attorney in August. But U.S. Attorneys often have a ceremonial investiture later on, with local, state and federal leaders present.

Holder has attended 15 U.S. Attorney swearing in ceremonies thus far.
