Ken Starr's Old Law Firm Joins Elian Case

NewsMax.com Thursday June 15, 2000

NewsMax.com has learned that Kirkland & Ellis, the former law
firm of Ken Starr, has joined the legal team around Elian
Gonzalez's Miami family.

Kirkland & Ellis reportedly helped the existing legal team headed
by Miami attorney Kendall Coffey prepare the appeal that is being
filed today with the 11th Circuit in Atlanta.

The new appeal will argue that the ruling by the 11th Circuit
three judge panel should be overruled.  The appeal argues that a
May Supreme Court decision involving a Texas case demonstrated
the INS did not have the right to deny Elian an asylum hearing.

The addition of Kirkland & Ellis, while bringing some higher
caliber legal minds to the Miami family's legal team, also
strengthens the legal team's ties to establishment Democratic
party circles.

Kirkland & Ellis, a Chicago-based firm with offices in
Washington, has had strong ties to the Democratic party and the
firm's political action committee was one of the largest legal
donors to Democratic Congressional candidates in the 1996
election cycle.

The Miami family's legal circle has also come under fire for its
failure to handle the case properly, as well as its ties to the
Democratic Party in South Florida.

The Miami family's lead attorney, Kendall Coffey, is a long time
associate of Janet Reno and had been appointed by Bill Clinton as
the U.S.  attorney in Miami.
