Education and legal career
Prior to joining the U.S. Attorney's Office in 2002, Horn was an associate in the special matters group at King & Spalding. Horn became acting U.S. attorney after then-President Barack Obama nominated Yates as Deputy Attorney General. When Horn's term expired in December 2015, the judges of the Northern District of Georgia issued a court order officially naming him as U.S. Attorney for the district. The court order bypassed the Senate confirmation process, allowing Horn to serve as U.S. Attorney until the President nominated, and the Senate confirmed, his successor.
