Along those same lines, Fred Norton's listed 3rd,
alphabetically, he'd be 2nd from the end.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Mr. Jacobs is a member of the California Bar, admitted to practice before the
California Federal District Court, whereas Mr. Boies is appearing pro hac vice,
solely by leave of the Court (in other words, a guest). I'd imagine that has
something to do with Mr. Jacobs appearing at the top of the attorney list.
For that matter, looking at docket # 1000, the attorneys for Google are not
listed in alphabetical order.

My totally uninformed guess, is that someone on each side prepared a list
for their side (making an arbitrary ordering choice for their side's list), then
somebody merged the two lists into one document and both sides
approved the resulting document. There was no real need to sort them,
and doing that post-merge would just complicate the process of getting
both sides to approve it, so it wouldn't be worth the potential hassle.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Well, "van Nest" should sort (by N) before "Purcell" (by P),
"van" being an infix that isn't sorted on. At least it would be in
Dutch names, which seems to be where it comes from.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
