Finally, some good news for California sex braggart "Hot Mike" Duvall...

Attorney General Jerry Brown says he won't investigate Duvall's claim, captured on a hot mike, to be having an affair with a woman identified as a lobbyist for an energy company. Until he resigned in the wake of the scandal, Duvall, a Republican, had been vice chair of the state legislative committee that oversees energy issues.

A Brown spokesman told the Los Angeles Times:

Even if the publicly reported behavior is proven to be true, it would not constitute a violation of California law. Accordingly, unless additional information comes to light, our office intends no further inquiry.

Brown, a former governor, is campaigning to re-assume to his old office next year.

It's not all good news for Duvall, though. The FBI has said it is probing Duvall's filthy rodomontade (hat-tip TPMDC's Brian Beutler), and has spoken to two former Duvall aides.

"A Brown spokesman told the Los Angeles Times:

Of course, if Brown and his "office" refuse to ask any questions, little additional information will ever come to light.
