Lawyer for Rove, Armstrong will defend Christie campaign for Bridgegate
The Christie for Governor reelection campaign has hired powerhouse law firm Patton Boggs to represent it in the ongoing investigation into lane diversions at the George Washington Bridge.
The campaign was among the groups subpoenaed last week by the Assembly committee investigating the controversy, which began in September when a Port Authority of New York and New Jersey official ordered two local lanes in Fort Lee diverted for use by highway traffic, snarling traffic in the small borough.
Emails received through a subpoena hint that political retribution was at the heart of the lane closures and not a traffic study as Port Authority officials had first indicated.
The Patton Boggs attorneys representing the campaign are Bob Luskin and Mark Sheridan. Luskin is famous for his defense of numerous high profile figures including Republican operative Karl Rove in the leak of the identity of a CIA officer and bicyclist Lance Armstrong in his blood doping defense.
