#TwitterTuesday–Practitioners to Follow

By Tessa L. Dysart

TwitterTuesdays

It is a big Tuesday today–the first arguments of the Supreme Court’s 2016 Term.  Last week we previewed some great SCOTUS-themed twitter accounts. Today we will focus on appellate practitioners to follow.  There are some great appellate lawyers out there on Twitter.  Today we will profile three who are active on Twitter:

Sean Marotta (@smmarotta) is a Senior Associate for Hogan Lovells in Washington, D.C. Morotta is a self-described nerd with an Appellate and Supreme Court Practice. Marotta often responds with insightful answers to tweeted questions.

Raffi Melkonian (@RMFifthCircuit) is an appellate lawyer in Houston, Texas. Melkonian often tweets regarding the quality of briefs and is known for trying to create “artisanally crafted, locally sourced, appellate risk” for his opponent’s client to force a settlement. 

Bob Loeb (@BobLoeb) works at a firm in Washington, D.C., “specializing in high stakes and complex litigation.” The former DOJ Civil Appellate lawyer tweets about all things appellate advocacy and frequently shares news from his firm, Orrick.
