New York Attorney General Letitia James has retained Munger, Tolles & Olson in a $1 million contract to advise her office on legal issues regarding two civil rights probes in the city.
Documents acquired through a public information request from the New York state comptroller stipulate a one-year contract with the law firm to “address (Justice Department) subpoenas through motion practice or the provision of documents,” according to Law.com.
