Op-ed from lead attorney in Alaska Troopergate Lawsuit
Sep 22, 2008 / 00:00 amBy now, most of the country has heard about "Troopergate" and Governor Palin's related conflict with several powerful members of the Alaska legislature. This conflict arises, in part, out of a legislative investigation into media allegations that Governor Palin removed the state's Commissioner of Public Safety because he refused to fire her ex-brother-in-law, a state trooper. As the lead attorney for one of two Troopergate lawsuits filed in Alaska last week, I am convinced that this legislative investigation is blatantly unlawful.

As a former federal judge in Alaska and a lawyer involved in litigation with Alaska’s oil companies, I’ve got a pretty good perspective on this.
