   New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham has reached an at least   
   $62,500 settlement with a former campaign staffer who accused her of   
   sexual harassment, according to public campaign financial filings and a   
   spokesman for the governor.   
      
   A campaign financial report filed with the New Mexico Secretary of State   
   Tuesday shows five payments of $12,500 paid to Buckley Beal LLP for   
   "legal expenses." The monthly payments began in November 2020 and   
   continue to the end of the report in March. No payment to the firm was   
   made in October, or before then in 2020, according to filings seen by   
   NBC News.   
      
   Buckley Beal LLP is representing James Hallinan, who worked as a   
   campaign communications director for Lujan Grisham and about a year   
   after the campaign ended, accused her of sexual misconduct.   
      
   On Christmas 2019, Hallinan wrote on Twitter, "A governor @GovMLG is not   
   above the law for her sexual and physical abuse of employees including   
   (me!!!) I’ll talk more when I return to the country."   
      
   A couple days later, Hallinan told local media that Lujan Grisham, 61,   
   had poured a bottle of water on his crotch and then slapped and grabbed   
   his crotch through his pants. He said the incident happened "in front of   
   everybody."   
      
   Hallinan had previously worked as a communications director for Attorney   
   General Hector Balderas, Connecticut Governor Dan Malloy and Connecticut   
   Lt. Governor Nancy Wyman. He now runs his own public relations company.   
      
   His lawyer, Rachel Berlin Benjamin with Buckley Beal LLP, told NBC News   
   that "Governor Lujan Grisham and Mr. Hallinan have resolved any   
   differences or issues to their satisfaction."   
      
   She said she could not provide any further information, and did not   
   answer a question as to whether there would be further payments.
