The people of New York have waited long enough to reclaim the historic Hudson. The time has long past for General Electric to put its significant resources into cleaning up their toxic mess.

She appears to be the only one. That satisfies the state issues in this.

My understanding is that the law in New York is very vague when it comes to price gouging.

We're preparing for trial in this matter with Mr. Greenberg. Today's settlement with AIG and the suit against Mr. Greenberg both orbit around the same set of facts, but they're separate issues now.

Our case is strong, and we fully expect to prevail.

When that audit is complete we'll get a copy of it. Our office will review it, and we'll take appropriate action if action is warranted.

When it comes to the role of the office, it's very clear. We defend the state.

We're not sure how we can do that legally or logistically. How do we sift through all the claims to determine which ones have merit? We have a process ahead to figure that out.

We're talking about moving mud from a river, straining toxins from it and either putting that mud back into the river or disposing of it properly. In the grand scheme of things, we're talking about relatively low-level technology.

UPS is such a large (shipping) player that it made sense to us, if we're trying to bring the shipping industry in line with state and federal laws, if you have UPS on your side, you are closer to achieving that goal.

As the state Department of Health has existing links to pharmacies, it would be most efficient to house and administer the site there. However, the attorney general's office welcomes the opportunity to provide this necessary service to the people of New York.

Essentially what we're talking about here is moving mud. We want them to do a good job and do it carefully and do it safely. But we're not talking about building a research station on the moon or building a floating platform in the middle of the ocean or building a nuclear power plant.

The state settled for $37,500. There's not an admission of liability on the part of the state.

The state is satisfied with this outcome. This brings closure to a long-standing case.

New York regulators have been reviewing aspects of the title insurance business for more than a year.
