NEW YORK, NEW YORK - OCTOBER 21: New York Attorney General Letitia James stands silently during a press conference on October 21, 2025 in New York City. James announced a $1.5 million settlement with Alba Services Inc., Andrew Horan, the company's owner, and a network of demolition and construction companies for violating state workers' compensation laws and retaliation against injured workers, and for not addressing sexual harassment claims. The company must pay $1.4 million to former and current Alba employees and $100,000 to a settlement administrator. The Trump administration fired two federal prosecutors in the Eastern District of Virginia who opposed the indictment against James, ahead of Friday's arraignment. (Photo by Michael M.
