Disgraced former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has been ordered to pay back $5.1 million he made from the book deal for his 2020 memoir about his handling of the pandemic. A New York state ethics board made the decision after it emerged Cuomo used his official staff and resources to produce the manuscript. Cuomo’s lawyer said he will not abide by the order, which requires him to surrender the funds to the Attorney General’s Office within 30 days.
