ALBANY, N.Y. A law firm has been retained to lead the impeachment investigation into sexual harassment allegations against New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.
The announcement was made by Assembly Speaker Carl E. Heastie and Judiciary Committee Chair Charles D. Lavine Wednesday.
The law firm Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP will lead the investigation.
“Since Thursday, Chairman Lavine led a vigorous search for a top-flight firm to assist with the investigation. I have the utmost faith that Assemblymember Lavine and our Judiciary Committee will conduct a full and fair investigation,” Speaker Heastie said in a released statement. “Hiring Davis Polk will give the Committee the experience, independence and resources needed to handle this important investigation in a thorough and expeditious manner.”

New York lawmakers are preparing an impeachment investigation of Gov. Andrew Cuomo, but should they vote to hold a trial, the outcome will be determined in part by the state s seven Court of Appeals judges all of whom were appointed by Cuomo himself.
Unlike federal impeachment trials, where only the Senate votes on the verdict, New York impeachment trials add Court of Appeals judges to the mix. The court for the trial of impeachments shall be composed of the president of the senate, the senators, or the major part of them, and the judges of the court of appeals, or the major part of them, the state constitution reads.
