The Justice Department won an indictment against Comey for allegedly misleading and obstructing Congress under pressure from Trump, who's called him a dirty cop and a slimeball.
Now Comey's moving to dismiss the case because he says it's a vindictive or selective prosecution.
He says at least four top officials during President Trump's first term allegedly lied to Congress, and none of them was charged with any crimes.
The president's animus against Comey is so intense that the Justice Department recently fired Comey's daughter without any clear reason.
Carrie Johnson, NPR News, Washington.
Comey says the case is pure retaliation because he's a prominent critic of the president.
Trump has called the former head of the FBI a piece of garbage, a liar and a leaker and a weasel who should be in jail.
It's rare to get a case dismissed on the ground of vindictive prosecution, but Comey says at minimum the judge should let him explore evidence within the Justice Department about how he came to be charged with a crime.

Federal authorities detained David Huerta for days after a June immigration raid and ultimately charged him with a felony for resisting law enforcement.
Now they've pared down that charge down to a misdemeanor, which carries a maximum of one year in jail.
Huerta's attorneys say he's being singled out for being an advocate for workers and an outspoken critic of President Trump's immigration policies.
They argue the Justice Department is weaponizing against Trump opponents to try to silence them.
In recent weeks, grand juries in California have declined to charge some people accused of resisting immigration officers.
