(Reuters) - A New Jersey judge on Thursday allowed a citizen's criminal complaint against state Governor Chris Christie over the "Bridgegate" scandal to move ahead, referring it to state prosecutors for their consideration.
A court official confirmed that a judge in Bergen County had found probable cause for a complaint filed last month by Bill Brennan, a well-known activist, accusing Christie of official misconduct.
