Probe Into Cuomo’s Book Deal Can Continue

“New York’s top court has upheld the constitutionality of the state’s new ethics commission, delivering a blow to former Gov. Andrew Cuomo as he considers a run for mayor,” Politico reports.

“Cuomo had challenged the commission after it launched a probe of his $5 million deal to write a memoir on Covid. He won in two lower courts.”

“But the Court of Appeals sided with the state in a split 4-3 decision… The decision means COELIG can resume its investigation into Cuomo, just as he puts together the pieces for his likely high-profile New York City mayoral campaign.”
