Description:

On Monday afternoon, the Justice Department filed a motion to vacate a hearing set to happen tomorrow in Riverside, California, where it was set to argue its case that Apple must help it to crack the iPhone 5c of dead San Bernadino killer Syed Rizwan Farook. The FBI hasn't given up on accessing the data in Farook's phone. But it now says it doesn't need Apple's assistance to crack the device, which it had previously told a judge it could legally compel using the 1789 law known as the All Writs Act.
