In an unexpected move, the lawyer for Gov. Chris Christies office in the
George Washington Bridge scandal withdrew this week as counsel to the Port
Authority of New York and New Jersey in an ongoing federal lawsuit,
setting off speculation about what it means and why he did it.
.
Randy Mastro, a head litigation partner of the law firm of Gibson Dunn &
Crutcher, represents the governors office in the bridge scandal and other
controversies tied to Hurricane Sandy aid. At the same time, he had served
for more than a year as a lead attorney for the Port Authority in a
federal lawsuit focused on controversial toll hikes.
.
Christie hired Mastro in January after the disclosure of emails showing
that a Christie aide allegedly orchestrated a four-day closure of two
local-access lanes to the bridge, causing massive traffic jams in Fort
Lee. Many suspect the closures were retaliation after the boroughs
Democratic mayor didnt endorse the Republican governor for re-election.
.
In recent weeks, some attorneys and legal observers had expressed concern
about Mastros dual role, especially because Mastros duties for Christie
include his firm assisting with an internal review of the governors
offices actions, including events tied to the Port Authority.
.
On Wednesday, Mastro quietly withdrew as counsel to the Port Authority in
the ongoing lawsuit brought in federal court in Manhattan by the New York
and North Jersey chapters of the AAA. The suit aims to block toll
increases at six bistate bridges and tunnels, contending that the Port
Authority violated federal law by imposing toll hikes as part of a plan to
finance certain capital projects unrelated to transportation.
