The largest law firm representing the Trump campaign or its allies in post-election litigation challenging votes in key states has withdrawn from an election lawsuit in Maricopa County, Arizona.

Associate Presiding Civil Judge Daniel Kiley on Tuesday granted Snell & Wilmer’s request to withdraw as counsel of record for the Republican National Committee. The RNC had teamed-up with the Trump campaign and the Arizona Republican Party in the case, which alleges that Maricopa County incorrectly rejected some votes cast on Election Day.

Sounds like the firm got a deal they just could not refuse. Wonder what it was?

Someone is missing a prized racehorse. Or missing a piece of one.

Who needs Snell & Wilmer when you have Rudy Giuliani and Judicial Watch?

And..? Like this is the end of the lawsuits Don’t think so.. way too early that could have been for lots of reasons. Step around them and keep on charging.

Somehow this does not sound ethical. How long have they represented the rnc? If was a long term relationship and they quit when they are needed, that’s unethical. Not going to rooters, but I wonder if they gave a reason. Maybe they were fired.

I don't know if my hunch is correct, but I'm thinking conflict of interest. Here's a snippet from the Reuters story: ==================================================

"Snell & Wilmer, which has an election law practice, is separately serving as co-counsel in the Arizona Republican Party's long-running defense of a state law that prohibits absentee ballot collection by third parties and the counting of ballots cast at the wrong polling precinct . . ." (emphasis mine)

The way I read it, they had a large number of complaints, probably a lot of them from businesses that are high paying clients, so they lost their nerve.

No one needs an attorney who does not have his heart in representing them.
