Cuomo probe expands to include BOCES

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo says he is subpoenaing BOCES districts statewide because they may have been complicit in listing part-time lawyers as full-time employees to get additional state tax dollars.

Cuomo is targeting the BOCES districts that operate regional services for a number of public school districts. Cuomo says the BOCES appear to have gained more state school aid by providing health and pension benefits to BOCES attorneys who worked part-time for school districts in addition to their full-time private practices.

Cuomo’s broader investigation of benefits provided to lawyers by school districts and local governments continues.
