Christie’s legal tab for Bridgegate cost taxpayers $7.3M



The law firm Jersey Gov. Chris Christie hired to handle the George Washington Bridge scandal has cost taxpayers $ 7.3 million, a new report said Friday.


Gibson Dunn billed the state $ 784,459 for May, June and July, NJ.com said.


The firm had already been paid $ 6.52 million on the legal bills through April.


Christie hired Gibson Dunn in January after his top aides blocked access lanes to the busy span in an apparent act of political ­revenge against the mayor of Fort Lee for not endorsing him.
