Herring: "King and Spaulding coup advances"

I think Neill Herring is a man who likes some strong metaphors, too.

To be sure, we are looking at a lot of King and Spalding work, influence, and I dare say billing, on water and the environment toward the end of Gov. Perdue's term.

The Daily Report reports "a King & Spalding partner will be the lead attorney on the state of Georgia's appeal of a federal judge's ruling that threatens to cut off Atlanta's access to Lake Lanier as its water source."

A recent King & Spalding partner is also the new head of the EDP.
