Principal Responsibilities:

 

The Solicitor General division handles litigation affecting vital state interests at all levels of federal and state court, including matters before the U.S. Supreme Court, the defense of state statutes from constitutional challenges, and litigation against the federal government. The division also handles the Office’s amicus practice, advises on litigation strategy, and provides input on sensitive policy issues.

 

The Deputy Solicitor General will assist with all aspects of the division’s work—running cases, writing briefs, and presenting oral argument. Several appellate arguments per year is typical, as is the opportunity to take multiple depositions of fact and expert witnesses. Interest in developing cases against the federal government is a plus
