The attorney general's office said December 12 that no criminal charges should be filed over longstanding billing practices in the city attorney's office. In 2004, a then-deputy city attorney charged that certain agencies of San Diego government were being charged for legal work that was not done on those agencies' behalf. City Attorney Mike Aguirre launched an investigation in 2006 and ended the practice, which went back as far as 1987. The AG stressed that nobody profited personally, and the problems were basically a matter of sloppiness.
