Ridgewood NJ, The Attorney General’s Office of Public Integrity and Accountability (OPIA) filed a lawsuit today in New Jersey Superior Court in Mercer County, urging the Court to confirm that former U.S. Senator Robert Menendez is forever disqualified from running for, applying for, or holding any public office or employment in New Jersey state or municipal government and advising Menendez that doing so would constitute contempt of court. Other defendants subject to the permanent bar have nevertheless sought election to public office. Former Paterson Mayor Joey Torres was convicted of contempt in 2025 after running for mayor in 2022 in violation of a court order banning him from running for and holding public office.
