1. Davis Recommends Montgomery Lawyer
for U.S. Attorney
by David Palazzolo for Main Justice
Rep. Artur Davis, Alabama’s senior congressional Democrat, has
recommended a Montgomery lawyer for U.S. Attorney in the state’s
Middle District, reports The Associated Press.
Davis, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for governor, said
on Thursday he is backing George Beck Jr., 68, a white-collar
defense lawyer at Capell & Howard and former state prosecutor.
Earlier this month, we reported that Beck was the front-runner for the
Middle District post, which is based in Montgomery.
Beck is the third lawyer Davis has recommended for the job. Over the
summer, the White House eliminated defense lawyers Joe Van Heest
of Montgomery and Michel Nicrosi of Mobile, who ran into opposition
from the state’s Republican senators.
