New York Republican sues Democratic colleagues over high court vote
Fox News
Republican New York State Sen. Anthony Palumbo is suing Democratic colleagues over the Judiciary Committee's handling of Hector LaSalle's nomination to the state's highest court.
Palumbo, the committee's ranking Republican, claimed the state constitution doesn't give the panel the last word.
"A vote of a mere committee of the Senate — here, the Judiciary Committee — does not satisfy the constitutional requirement of advice and consent. The Constitution does not delegate that authority to a committee," according to the lawsuit filed in state court in Suffolk County.
