It appears Thunder Bay Mayor Keith Hobbs is on his own when it comes to paying for his lawyer.
Many on social media have been inquiring about whether it’s the city taxpayer who will be on the hook, when it comes to defending Hobbs against extortion and obstructing justice charges.
A city spokesperson says because the matter is personal, the Corporation is not responsible for his legal fees.
Hobbs and his wife Marisa, have hired high profile lawyers Brian Greenspan and Naomi Lutes to battle the charges in court.
