National Law Firm Takes On Utah Census Lawsuit
WASHINGTON, DC -- The national law firm Sidley Austin Brown &Wood
LLP has agreed to represent the state of Utah in its lawsuit seeking
a fourth U.S. Congressional seat before the U.S. Supreme Court. In
the case, to be heard March 27th, Utah argues that the U.S. Census
Bureau illegally increased the population counts it made when
enumerators were unable to contact residents in a process the Bureau
calls "imputation." The case will be argued by partners Carter
Phillips and Gene Schaerr, assisted by associate Michael Lee, whose
older brother Thomas Lee is the BYU professor advising Utah on the
case. Both Michael and Thomas Lee are sons of former Sidley Austin
Brown partner, BYU President and U.S. Solicitor General Rex E. Lee.
