The feds and the MTA disagree, saying the highway administration did a full environmental assessment and will re-evaluate the plan and make adjustments.Attorneys say New Jersey is trying to delay congestion pricing, hoping it goes away.'We have a judge that is very serious, has done a lot of homework, and when judges do the homework, that means we win,' MTA attorney Roberta Kaplan said.
