Political ally Lesniak gets a no bid contract to represent JC vs the Port Authority, then after more than a year bows out due to a conflict of interest (that existed before he was given the contract). How much will it cost JC now to have a new law firm take over representing JC in the lawsuit? Does anyone think that all the work they did will have to be redone by new counsel? How much will this screw up cost JC?

So law firms that have a history of working with government agencies got awarded contracts by government agencies? Color me shocked.

Jersey City agency seeks to award legal contracts to six firms, four of which have ties to Dems

JERSEY CITY -- A city agency seeks to award contracts tomorrow to four law firms that have ties to statewide Democrats, three of which also have connections to Mayor Steve Fulop.

In all, the Jersey City Incinerator Authority wants to hire six different firms to represent the agency for issues ranging from bonding to the environment to workers' compensation. The measure is up for approval at the agency's board of commissioners meeting tomorrow night.

Esther Wintner, a frequent Fulop critic who heads good-government group Civic JC, said the JCIA's decision to hire politically connected firms shows that the process by which contracts are awarded "needs review."

"It would seem that political favoritism and patronage still exists in Jersey City despite what's trumpeted to us," Wintner told The Jersey Journal.
