TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - May 15, 2009 Paul J. Fishman was recommended for the post by New Jersey's two
Democratic U.S. senators, Frank Lautenberg and Robert Menendez.
Following Friday's announcement, the senators praised Fishman's
integrity and judgment.
Fishman has 14 years' experience with the U.S. Attorney's Office
and the Department of Justice. He is a partner with Friedman Kaplan
Seiler & Adelman, where he handles civil and white-collar cases.
If confirmed by the Senate, Fishman will succeed Christopher
Christie, who served under George W. Bush and resigned in December
to seek the Republican nomination for governor in New Jersey.
