something i posted on facebook the other day:


Is there anyone licensed in Mississippi who might want to serve as local counsel in a campaign speech case? I have a client who is somewhat interested in intervening in Anonymous Doe et al. v Bryant.
More generally, what is your solution to the problem of needing local counsel in other states? This same kind of anonymous speech case could be brought in about 20 states, but I don't know how to go about finding local counsel, which is generally required for pro hoc vice admission to do a case in a state other than my home state. It would be useful if the Libertarian Party had a network of lawyers with at least one in each state, or most states, to solve this problem. It seems like it would be a mutually beneficial arrangement and help the party in adequately staffing its own cases such as ballot access or campaign finance cases. Or there may be some already existing solution that I don't know about. Robbin Stewart, gtbear at gmail.
