<div>Emails released to the Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) reveal close ties between Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt, the Koch-funded American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), and the fossil fuel interests that fund ALEC, including the Kochs’ Americans for Prosperity Group.The emails were obtained after the Center for Media and Democracy filed an open records lawsuit against Pruitt in February for his two-year-long failure to respond to our open records requests for his email correspondence with major fossil fuel corporations.An Oklahoma state court ordered Pruitt to release thousands of emails which are now online and <a href="http://www.exposedbycmd.org/Scott-Pruitt-Missing-Emails" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">available for public inspection</a>, but CMD is still in court seeking to obtain 1,600 pages entirely withheld from the public under his assertion that they are privileged from release.  CMD is also seeking emails from its first request that were not released and that include Pruitt’s correspondence in 2016 with corporations. CMD is also awaiting responses to eight other open records requests to Pruitt, whose release was delayed after the state Supreme Court halted the lower court’s order to expedite their release due to Pruitt’s dilatory handling of the requests.<h3 style="box-sizing: inherit; line-height: 1.2; margin: 0px 0px 10px; text-transform: uppercase; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">PRUITT’S ALEC TIES</h3>Pruitt was an Oklahoma state senator from 2002-2007. As a legislator, Pruitt <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20030215004943/http:/www.alec.org/viewpage.cfm?pgname=5.03" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">chaired</a> the ALEC Civil Justice task force in 2003 and perhaps other years. ALEC is a corporate bill mill where legislators and industry lobbyists work together behind closed doors to draft industry-friendly bills that are then introduced in state houses across the nation as “innovative” public policy stripped of their industry origins.But Pruitt touted industry influence as a plus in an interview. “ALEC is unique in the sense that it puts legislators and companies together and they create policy collectively,” Pruitt <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20161011175907/http:/www.governing.com/topics/politics/What-Makes-Alec-Smart.html" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">said</a>.One cookie-cutter bill approved by ALEC’s Civil Justice task force in 2003 was the <a href="http://www.alecexposed.org/wiki/Asbestos_and_Silica_Claims_Priorities_Act_Exposed" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">Asbestos and Silica Claims Priorities Act.</a> It is one of many ALEC bills geared toward protecting the deadly asbestos industry and companies that don’t protect their workers from known asbestos or silica hazards. The bill increases the burden on a person bringing a lawsuit alleging an asbestos and silica-related injury.Asbestos-related diseases kill at least 10,000 Americans every year, in many cases from mesothelioma, an incurable and painful cancer caused by exposure to asbestos. For decades, asbestos was used for insulation and industrial purposes, and the diseases particularly affect veterans, firefighters, construction workers, and individuals who worked in factories with high-heat machinery. In Wisconsin, veterans groups have been <a href="http://www.wisconsinasbestosvictims.org/veteran_groups_across_wisconsin_express_serious_disappointment_as_state_senate_passes_an_amended_version_of_ab_19_that_still_delays_and_denies_justice_for_wisconsin_veterans" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">some of</a> the most <a href="http://www.wisconsinwatch.org/2013/11/05/new-rules-sought-on-asbestos-suits/" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">vocal opponents</a> of the legislation: veterans make up just 8 percent of the population, but are 30 percent of mesothelioma cases.Crystalline silica is also deadly. It can be found in sand, gravel, and stone as well as sidewalks and building materials. Silica dust has been classified as a human lung carcinogen and results in fatalities and seriously disabling illnesses. According to OSHA, silica exposure “remains a serious threat to nearly 2 million U.S. workers, including more than 100,000 workers in high risk jobs such as abrasive blasting, foundry work, stonecutting, rock drilling, quarry work and tunneling.” ALEC wants to make it harder for injured workers or their families to seek compensation.Other bills approved by ALEC around that time include:<ul style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><li style="box-sizing: inherit; list-style-type: initial; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><a href="http://www.alecexposed.org/wiki/Jury_Patriotism_Act_Exposed" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">Jury Patriotism Act</a> (2002-2003)</li><li style="box-sizing: inherit; list-style-type: initial; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><a href="http://www.alecexposed.org/wiki/Notice_and_Opportunity_to_Repair_Act_Exposed" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">Notice and Opportunity to Repair Act</a> (2003-2004)</li><li style="box-sizing: inherit; list-style-type: initial; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><a href="http://www.alecexposed.org/wiki/Drug_and_Alcohol_Defense_Act_Exposed" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">Drug and Alcohol Defense Act</a> (2002-2003)</li><li style="box-sizing: inherit; list-style-type: initial; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><a href="http://www.alecexposed.org/wiki/Constitutional_Guidelines_for_Punitive_Damages_Act_Exposed" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">Constitutional Guidelines for Punitive Damages Act</a> (2003)</li></ul>After Pruitt became attorney general, he stayed engaged with ALEC on energy and environmental issues. ALEC is funded by a number of big polluters including Devon Energy, Peabody Energy, Koch Industries, and ExxonMobil. In 2014, the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/07/us/politics/energy-firms-in-secretive-alliance-with-attorneys-general.html?mtrref=undefined&gwh=FBE5E961E7836420DD3B67E063AD718C&gwt=pay&assetType=nyt_now&r=0" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">New York Times</a> won a Pulitzer Prize after it filed an open records request and exposed the fact that Pruitt received a letter from Devon, put it on his state letterhead, and sent it to the EPA. The Devon lobbyist lauded this move as “Outstanding!”A February 2013 <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3472490-Produce-Box-1-Redacted.html/#document/p119" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">email</a> from Amy Anderson, the ALEC Civil Justice task force staffer, asked for the AG’s digital signature for an ALEC letter. Pruitt’s office zipped over the signature minutes later. The letter was not disclosed.

Anderson also requested Pruitt’s attendance at a luncheon sponsored by Koch Industries because it “would be delightful to have our current legislative members benefit from his experience as a former state legislator, an ALEC member and a now attorney general.”Pruitt <a href="http://www.prwatch.org/files/Embracing_American_Energy%20.pdf" target="blank" style="background: 0px 0px; box-sizing: inherit; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">spoke</a> at a December 2013 ALEC meeting on a panel called “Embracing American Energy Opportunities: From Wellheads to Pipelines.” Now we know from the Pruitt <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3472491-Produce-Box-5-Redacted.html/#document/p538" target="blank" style="background: 0px 0px; box-sizing: inherit; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">emails</a> that he was invited to speak at ALEC by an industry lobbyist named <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Peter_S.Glaser" target="blank" style="background-image: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; box-sizing: inherit; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">Peter Glaser</a>, a partner at the law firm Troutman Sanders LLP. Glaser has represented Peabody Energy and other energy companies fighting EPA efforts to address climate change.In 2014, Pruitt <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K12PCuBjFgI" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">spoke</a> at another ALEC meeting that was <a href="http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/coal-oil-polluters-dominate-alec-conference/" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">sponsored by</a> Peabody Energy, ExxonMobil, Chevron, and the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity (ACCCE).During his speech about the President Obama Clean Power Plan, Pruitt touted a line that polluting industries would love: “Beyond the regional haze case, we have something on the horizon, something more troubling. And that’s the proposed rule under 111(d) with respect to CO2 regulation. We have an EPA that is engaged in rulemaking, proposed rulemaking, that seeks to exert itself in a way that the statute doesn’t authorize at all.” Pruitt would join a group of states in a legal attack on the Clean Power Plan, a historic effort to rein in power-plant pollution <a href="https://www.epa.gov/cleanpowerplan/fact-sheet-clean-power-plan-numbers" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">by one-third</a> over a span of years.<h3 style="box-sizing: inherit; line-height: 1.2; margin: 0px 0px 10px; text-transform: uppercase; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">KEEPING UP WITH THE KOCHS AS OKLAHOMA ATTORNEY GENERAL</h3>The stack of Pruitt emails received by CMD reveal <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3472487-Produce-4000.html/#document/p111" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">email exchanges</a> between Aaron Cooper, Director of Public Affairs for the attorney general’s office and Matt Ball, Oklahoma State Director for Americans for Prosperity (AFP), the right-wing political advocacy arm of the Koch political empire.July 2013 emails show Ball organizing an August 22 event featuring Pruitt, Sen. James Lankford (OK-R), and William Yeatman, a senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI). Both <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Koch_candidates,2016#Oklahoma_2" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">Lankford</a> and <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Competitive_Enterprise_Institute#CEI.27s_Foundation_Funders" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">CEI</a> have received Koch funding. In organizing the event, Ball helpfully instructs the AG’s staff on what he wants Pruitt to say,“Frankly, I just assume the AG and Lankford talk sue and settle, how the EPA is deploying these tactics and what their respective offices have done on oversight and litigation, and let Yeatman from CEI give an objective analysis of costs to ratepayers from revised state implementation plan on regional haze (which includes the PSO rate increase). That way you guys don’t have to deliver those messages and can focus on what the AG does best, opposing the Obama administration and its nasty tactics on the environment.”Industry groups and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce claim that agencies like EPA are “regulating” outside the normal rule making process when they are sued by environmentalist groups, like Greenpeace and Sierra Club, for not following the law and then settle those lawsuits in legally binding, court ordered agreements without inviting states or industry to participate.Cooper promptly responds, “I think that what be good from our standpoint.” Ball, on August 14, sends an <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3472487-Produce-4000.html/#document/p136" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">email</a> with the final schedule detailed in which he praises Pruitt for “all they are doing to push back against President Obama’s EPA and its axis with liberal environmental groups.” Pruitt led a group of state attorneys general in suing the EPA for its correspondence with environmental groups.In <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3472487-Produce-4000.html/#document/p181" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">another</a> email, Ball requests a same day meeting with Pruitt’s Chief of Staff and Assistant Attorney General, Melissa Houston and she agrees to meet him the next day in the AG’s conference room. The fractured emails do not indicate what the meeting was about.Yet <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3472489-Produce-6000.html/#document/p51" target="blank" style="box-sizing: inherit; background: 0px 0px; transition: all 500ms ease-in-out; text-decoration-line: none;">another email</a> from December 2013, invites Dean Kuckelman, Senior Counsel, Litigation and Discovery, for Koch Companies Public Sector to a conference call with two of Pruitt’s assistant attorneys general and the Solicitor General. The topic of the conference is not known.This email followed an email from Kuckelman to Houston with an attachment produced by the American Tort Reform (ATR) entitled, “Judicial Hell Holes.” The Kochs share ATR’s goals to make it harder for consumers to sue over products and services that kill or injure people. Judicial “hell holes” refer to states where it is easier for consumers to sue or unite in class action suits against giant, deep-pocketed corporations.This is only a small sampling of the emails between Koch and ALEC staff and Pruitt staff, CMD is fighting for 1,600 pages withheld by Pruitt’s office in the lawsuit and additional emails, which will shed more light on these meetings and relationships.The cozy relationship between Pruitt, the Kochs, ALEC crew, and the big polluters who fund ALEC will no doubt continue as Pruitt begins to dismantle the EPA.Upon his appointment ALEC released a statement lauding Pruitt and claiming that Trump has “found just the right person to bring fresh leadership and much-needed reform to an agency currently out of control. Anyone who values striking a balance between sensible environmental regulations and the rule of law should delight in Pruitt’s appointment.”While the corporate-fueled ALEC may be delighted, Americans concerned about the future of America’s lakes, bays, rivers, and more find Pruitt’s close relationship with polluters not very charming.</div><div>

Joining their effort is an army of industry-funded law firms that specialize in fighting the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Together, they will argue that the EPA does not have any authority under Section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act to issue the carbon regulations; they will also contest the legality of the <a href="http://grist.org/climate-energy/obamas-carbon-rule-hangs-on-this-one-legal-question/" style="line-height: 20px; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-size: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial;">“fence line</a>” used to set state emission targets. Yet, buried in coverage of the litigation is the fact that the coalition suing the EPA is connected to some of the largest electric utility companies in the country – and many have purposefully kept themselves at arms’ length so that their customers never know they are funding lawyers who are working to stop one of  President Obama’s main pillars to fight climate change. Policymakers, regulators, and customers should know what electricity companies are secretly working together with coal companies to sue the EPA.

It details connections between powerful people and organizations; the data is derived from government filings, news articles, and other reputable sources.

This LittleSis network map will be updated as polluters fund more attorneys in the fight against the Clean Power Plan. Others with new information are encouraged to build off of this map and connect more companies to the law firms. Not only is it important for people to see these connections, but many will remember that in 2009, <a href="http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2009/09/02/174417/duke-quits-accce/" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; background: transparent;">Duke Energy was pressured to leave ACCCE</a> after it was caught playing both sides of the Waxman-Markey debate: it publically supported the bill but also was a paying member of ACCCE, which was working to kill the legislation. Duke Energy also quit the National Association of Manufacturers for similar reasons. If utility companies voice support for the Clean Power Plan, it’s crucial to put pressure on them to leave front groups or trade associations working to fight the EPA. Pacific Legal Foundation Background Ronald Zumbrun and Ramond Momboise, former advisors to California Gov. Ronald Reagan, <a href="http://www.latimes.com/la-oe-tushnet7jul07-story.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; background: transparent;">founded the Pacific Legal Foundation</a>. The founding results from Lewis F. Powell’s <a href="http://billmoyers.com/content/the-powell-memo-a-call-to-arms-for-corporations/" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; background: transparent;">secret memo</a> to a friend at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce titled "Attack on the American Free Enterprise System.” Powell wanted the business community to create non-for-profit law firms; thus, the<a href="http://prospect.org/article/legend-powell-memo" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; background: transparent;">Pacific Legal Foundation was created</a>. It’s website <a href="http://www.latimes.com/la-oe-tushnet7jul07-story.html" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; background: transparent;">says</a> it exists to fight “tyranny” engendered by “overzealous bureaucracies and government red tape” and that it is a foe of “government regulators and environmental extremists.” Powell would go on to become a Supreme Court justice. Patric Morrisey BackgroundPatrick Morrisey is the Attorney General in West Virginia. Besides leading the states to sue the EPA earlier this year, he recently joined with 15 other states to ask the EPA for an immediate stay of its Clean Power Plan pending the outcome of an impending legal challenge to the rule. From 2004 to 2010, Morrisey was a partner at Sidley Austin LLP. In his campaign to become Attorney General American Electric Power, Alpha Natural Resources, Arch Coal, and Consol Energy, just to name a few, donated to his campaign.  Baker & Hosteler BackgroundIn Michigan v. EPA in which the U.S. Supreme Court in 5-4 vote struck down the EPA's carefully crafted rules to limit the emission of mercury and other toxic pollutants from oil and coal power plants, <a href="http://www.bakerlaw.com/davidbrivkinjr" title="Link: http://www.bakerlaw.com/davidbrivkinjr" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; background: transparent;">David B. Rivkin Jr.</a> of Baker & Hostetler represented the Cato Institute, which in turn has <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Cato_Institute#Finances_and_Funding" title="Link: http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Cato_Institute#Finances_and_Funding" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; background: transparent;">received millions</a> from energy interests including the David H. Koch Foundation and ExxonMobil. Rivkin worked in the Reagan Justice Department and was the associate general counsel at the Department of Energy under George H. W. Bush. More recently, he has been part of the legal effort to strike down Obamacare and also has <a href="http://www.law360.com/articles/392593/7th-circ-says-rumsfeld-can-t-be-held-liable-for-torture" title="Link: http://www.law360.com/articles/392593/7th-circ-says-rumsfeld-can-t-be-held-liable-for-torture" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none; background: transparent;">defeated lawsuits</a> aimed at holding former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld personally liable for alleged torture in Iraq. Rivkin also argued the cause for petitioner State of Texas in Texas v. EPA, which was decided in July 2013. The U.S. Court of Appeals slapped down Texas’ attempt to block the EPA from controlling the state’s system for issuing permits to power plants.=</div><div>

These include <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/FreedomWorks" title="FreedomWorks" style="text-decoration: none; background: none;">FreedomWorks</a>, the Tea Party group funded by the Koch brothers, and the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/National_Cattlemen%27s_Beef_Association" title="National Cattlemen's Beef Association" style="text-decoration: none; background: none;">National Cattlemen's Beef Association</a>. In July 2011, FreedomWorks told its members:<a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/EPA%27s_Regulatory_Trainwreck#cite_note-8" style="text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap; background: none;">[8]</a><dl style="margin-top: 0.2em; margin-bottom: 0.5em; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><dd style="line-height: 1.5em; margin-left: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 0.1em; margin-right: 0px;">"Behind the scenes, while Washington and the United States focus on the debt crisis, President Obama’s EPA has been quietly implementing one of the most radical and costly policies of his administration. Ever since the failure of cap-and-trade, the administration has turned to the EPA to carry out its radical environmental agenda. Immediately after the 2010 election Obama was quoted saying “Cap-and-trade was just one way of skinning the cat; it was not the only way.” The EPA is in the process of completing and finalizing 30 major regulations and 170 major policy rules that would impose hundreds of billions of dollars of compliance costs on the economy, killing jobs and threatening the economic recovery. Because of the disastrous affects that the EPA’s new regulations will have on the already struggling economy, many have taken to calling the administration’s aggressive stance the “EPA train wreck.”"</dd></dl>The National Cattlemen's Beef Association created a YouTube video with a train-themed song of rhyming regulations, adding their own agricultural spin on the campaign by lumping in the USDA's <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/GIPSA_Rule" title="GIPSA Rule" style="text-decoration: none;

Colquitt. Colquitt was well known in Atlanta near the end of the 19th century for his representation of the Georgia Railway and Electric Company, which would later become the Georgia Power Company.In 1930, Colquitt formed a partnership with two brothers, Henry and Robert Troutman, both of whom were well-respected lawyers that had clients, such as Gulf Refining Company, the Georgia Real Estate Commission and the National Surety Company. Additionally, Colquitt had two other attorneys, Robert S. Parker and Preston Stanley Arkwright Jr., join the firm creating Colquitt, Parker, Troutman and Arkwright. For the next thirty years, the firm grew in size, reputation and client base, and went through a few name changes as partnerships were formed and broken. By the late 1960s, the firm was known as Troutman Sams Schroder & Lockerman.In 1971, then president of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_Power" title="Georgia Power" style="text-decoration: none; background: none;">Georgia Power</a>, Ed Hatch, suggested the merger of Troutman Sams Schroder & Lockerman with former Governor <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Sanders" title="Carl Sanders" style="text-decoration: none; background: none;">Carl Sanders</a>’ firm, Sanders Ashmore & Boozer. Hatch believed the merger would keep intact the decades of utility expertise of the Troutman firm, while merging the fresh talent and energy of Sanders’ young firm. The new firm would operate as Troutman Sanders Lockerman & Ashmore, until shortened to Troutman Sanders in 1992 when the firm moved from downtown Atlanta’s historic <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candler_Building(Atlanta,Georgia)" title="Candler Building (Atlanta, Georgia)" class="mw-redirect" style="text-decoration: none; background: none;">Candler Building</a> to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midtown_Atlanta" title="Midtown Atlanta" style="text-decoration: none; background: none;">Midtown Atlanta</a>’s new 55-story <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bank_of_America_Plaza(Atlanta)" title="Bank of America Plaza (Atlanta)" style="text-decoration: none; background: none;">Bank of America Plaza</a>.Since 1993, Robert W. “Bob” Webb Jr. has helmed the firm after succeeding Carl Sanders as managing partner. During his tenure, the firm has seen remarkable growth across the U.S. and internationally. In 2001, Troutman Sanders merged with Mays & Valentine LLP, which added 150 attorneys to the firm. The merger also added several offices in Virginia.In 2006, Carl Sanders retired and took the title of Chairman Emeritus. Webb subsequently added chairman to his title, becoming the firm’s Chairman and Managing Partner. Three years after his retirement, the firm merged with D.C.-based Ross Dixon & Bell. Troutman Sanders' size grew to 15 offices after the merger, adding Chicago, Orange County, San Diego and doubling its D.C. presence with over 650 attorneys.In January 2011, Webb relinquished his duties as the firm's managing partner to Stephen "Steve" E. Lewis, and became solely the firm's Chairman.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troutman_Sanders#cite_note-6" style="text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap; background: none;">[6]</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troutman_Sanders#cite_note-7" style="text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap; background: none;">[7]</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troutman_Sanders#cite_note-8" style="text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap; background: none;">[8]</a> The firm continues to expand, with offices opened in 2014 in Charlotte and in 2015 in San Francisco.<h3 style="margin: 0.3em 0px 0px; overflow: hidden; padding-top: 0.5em; padding-bottom: 0px; border-bottom-style: none; line-height: 1.6; background-image: none; background-attachment: initial; background-color: initial; background-size: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial;">Offices<span class="mw-editsection" style="-webkit-user-select: none; font-weight: normal; margin-left: 1em; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1em; display: inline-block; white-space: nowrap; unicode-bidi: -webkit-isolate;">[<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Troutman_Sanders&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Offices" style="text-decoration: none; background: none;">edit</a>]</h3>The firm's headquarters is in Atlanta.
