Devin Nunes’ lawyer facing prospect of sanctions after two recent, rare court warnings

The attorney representing Rep. Devin Nunes in six lawsuits has received two recent, rare warnings from judges that raise the prospect of courts sanctioning him.

People and organizations that Nunes’ attorney, Steven Biss, is suing have begun asking judges to punish him in several other instances.

Three of the requests for sanctions – from National Public Radio, Twitter and a government whistleblower advocate – mark an escalation in their defense against defamation lawsuits Biss has filed.

The most recent request for sanctions against Biss came from Fusion GPS, the firm known for creating the so-called “Steele dossier,” which contained unverified tips about President Donald Trump’s connections to Russia.

Together, they're the Keystone Kops of the legal system.
