Supreme Court In No Rush To Weigh Trump Election Lawsuits By By
Matthew Santoni Law360 (January 11, 2021, 1:05 PM EST) The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday said it would not speed up appeals challenging the 2020 presidential election results in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, effectively ending bids by President Donald Trump and his supporters to undo those states results before President-elect Joe Biden s inauguration.
Monday s order list said without comment or dissent that the justices denied expedited consideration of petitions for review in seven suits across the five states, meaning the court would not fast-track its decision on whether to hear the cases let alone decide them before the constitutionally mandated end of Trump s term Jan. 20.

US Anti-Doping Agency Parts Ways With Top Lawyer
Law360 (December 15, 2020, 4:35 PM EST) The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency has parted ways with its general counsel, William Bock of Kroger Gardis & Regas LLP, who played an integral role in the doping case against Lance Armstrong that resulted in the stripping of the cyclist s titles.
The separation comes around the time of Bock s involvement in a lawsuit filed in Wisconsin federal court aiming to overturn election results on behalf of President Donald Trump.
It is unclear when, and why, Bock and the USADA separated, but the agency did confirm Bock s departure to Law360 on Tuesday.
