As @gtconway.bsky.social noted, it's extraordinary that 14 lawyers signed the pleading.

Is it significant they're not representing their own case ?

Or law firms never handle cases in which they are a named party ?

As they say, “The man who represents himself in court has a fool for a client.”

Yeah, I thought it might differ when it's a plethora of lawyers....

Thx for linking to the complaint Katie!
I wish the other firm (re Jack Smith rep) joined on this complaint. Tho clearly, their arguments are applicable to any similarly targeted LF.

I am almost glad for this. Let's defend the Constitution in as big a way as possible given the lopsided court and branches.

I'm loving the pushback from the lawyers and law firms.

Trump would like to have the entire DC bar confined to the rowing decks of a trireme in the Chesapeake Bay, being whipped by Celeusta Bongino, and exhorted by Trierarchus Hannity.

I always thought Connolly & Williams was a "conservative" leaning law firm. But I know big firms usually have a mix too.

As has been noted elsewhere, 14 different attorneys from Williams and Connolly signed their names and bar # at the end of this brief.

They probably would have fought over which one would be John Hancock if the brief was signed by hand.

They aren't messing around.
