| | Texas Monthly June 2000: The Case Against John Cornyn |
 | | It is, as its current occupant, John Cornyn, likes to say, the biggest law firm in the state, and much of its functioning is routine: approving bond issues, collecting delinquent child support payments, issuing advisory opinions, and defending state officials and agencies in run-of-the-mill lawsuits. |
 | | Indeed, Cornyn himself had no trouble discerning right from wrong when the person accepting the money in a similar situation was his GOP runoff opponent, Barry Williamson, whom Cornyn attacked as "ethically tone-deaf to genuine public concern about fundraising" and called upon to return the contributions. |
 | | Cornyn essentially put Gallagher in the position of subjecting himself and his fee to legislative oversight or withdrawing from the case. |
