Christie's bridge scandal lawyers to be subpoenaed
TRENTON, N.J. (AP) A New Jersey legislative committee probing a political payback operation carried out by Gov. Chris Christie's aides and associates plans to subpoena interview transcripts and other documents from the lawyers the governor hired to carry out an internal investigation, the committee co-chairman said Monday.
Assemblyman John Wisniewski said lawyers retained by the Christie administration to conduct an internal investigation into the blocking of traffic near the George Washington Bridge appeared to have access to information that the committee hasn't seen.
Wisniewski also said lawyers at the firm, Gibson Dunn, appeared to withhold documents subpoenaed by the legislative panel while their own report on the lane closings was being compiled.

(50,290 posts)not smart for a supposedly smart law firm. The transcripts should make for interesting reading as well. They should be made public immediately as it was the taxpayers of New Jersey paying for them.
