According to the Sacramento Bee Friday, Harris claimed she did not know about a harassment suit and settlement involving Larry Wallace, while he was working for her at the California Department of Justice.
However, the report said Harris’s office was notified of the intent to pursue legal action, three months before she left her role as state attorney general.
The office was also allegedly notified of the pending lawsuit, days before her departure.
Harris is considered a likely contender for the 2020 presidential election.
