Chris Christie to Appear in Court Over Misconduct Complaint

TRENTON, N.J. — Oct 19, 2016, 6:22 PM ET

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's court date to answer a citizen's complaint that he failed to put a stop to the closure of lanes at the George Washington Bridge in 2013 has been moved to Nov 23.

Documents filed in New Jersey Superior Court Monday and publicized Wednesday show Christie's attorney agreed the Republican governor's first appearance would be Nov. 23, rather than Oct. 24 in Hackensack.

The document was signed by Christie attorney Craig Carpenito, assistant prosecutor John Higgins as well as Judge Roy McGeady. Carpenito did not immediately return a request for comment.

Christie has denied any wrongdoing and has not been charged in what federal prosecutors say was a political payback scheme. Two of Christie's former aides are on trial in the matter.
