State Senate Republicans are fighting attempts by Gov. Eliot Spitzer to quash subpoenas issued to his administration over whether aides sought to produce damaging documents on Majority Leader Joseph Bruno.
The state Senate Investigations Committee planned to serve Spitzer’s attorneys with hundreds of pages of documents yesterday to rebut claims that information on the alleged plot should not be released to the committee.
State Sen. George Winner, R-Elmira, said the court documents argue that the Spitzer administration has a legal responsibility to release the information and to let aides testify before the panel.
