Bowe Bergdahl, who was court-martialed for desertion during his tour of Afghanistan, had his conviction vacated on Tuesday by a federal judge, who said a military judge had failed to disclose a potential conflict of interest.

Prior to ruling on Bergdahl's case, the military judge had submitted an application for a position as an immigration judge in the Justice Department under then-President Donald Trump, Judge Reggie B. Walton wrote in Tuesday's order. The military judge "should have disclosed his job application as a potential ground for his disqualification," Walton wrote.
