Arguing in the second case on Monday – two consolidated sentencing cases, actually, Abbott v. United States and Gould v. United States – will be a new acting deputy solicitor general Roy McLeese, who was quietly installed this summer to fill in for longtime deputy Michael Dreeben while he is on leave to teach at Duke Law School this fall.
McLeese was detailed from the U.S. Attorney’s office in D.C. where he heads its appellate division. In an earlier stint at the SG’s office, McLeese argued four Supreme Court cases. Parenthetically, McLeese is married to another Supreme Court veteran, Sidley Austin’s Virginia Seitz.
