[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What exactly does the MOLC do anyway?  I have been around for quite awhile and have never heard of the office.  [/quote]

Mayor's Office of Legal Counsel. My understanding is that all GCs in the Executive Branch (not OAG) are responsible not just to their agency head and to MOLC.  [/quote]

But the Mayor already has a very capable GC, who seems to be on top of things.  Doesn't seem like the MOLC is serving much use.  Especially given what was reported in this article, seems like the Mayor is picking from the bottom of the barrel for MOLC staffing.[/quote]

The Mayors GC and the MOLC are totally separate. All you have to do is go to the MOLC website to see what they do. One only deals with the Mayors employees-GC—the other deals with agencies and the public which is MOLC. MOLC was created after DC started electing the Attorney General. Before the mayor appointed the AG, so the oversight of hiring attorneys was pulled from the AG and given to MOLC. [b]They also oversee sexual harassment, FOIA[/b] and some other stuff. [/quote]

Well, they clearly aren't handling this very well given the article posted here and that BEGA spanked them for their large backlog of overdue FOIA appeal responses.  Such a mess.[/quote]
