A New York lobbying firm will pay a $20,000 fine to settle a dispute over its representation of the Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of Oklahoma.
Crane & Vacco was hired by the tribe and a developer to lobby for an off-reservation casino. The firm was promised millions of dollars if the effort was successful, an illegal contingency contract in New York.
The casino never came to fruition.
