The state Supreme Court has retained Pittsburgh firm Del Sole Cavanaugh Stroyd—the same firm that represented Attorney General Kathleen Kane when she challenged the grand jury investigating her—to review the contents of numerous allegedly offensive emails linked to Justice J. Michael Eakin.

Kane announced Oct. 1 that she had uncovered 1,500 emails containing sexist and racist materials sent or received by Eakin after she was arraigned on additional charges of perjury and obstruction of justice.
