I chalk it up to "The MTA employs a bunch of lawyers. Those lawyers need to show they are doing something." Pretty standard stuff.



Perhaps the MTA should retain fewer lawyers then.


This was something that was brought up in some sort of efficiency review that was recently done. More concerning than New York City Transit having too many lawyers is that all the sub-agencies duplicate these departments... so there is a team sitting around at the LIRR, MNR, etc. doing similar things for their sub-agency. It is not an efficient organization.
