The FCC has upped Deputy General Counsel for Litigation DAVID GOSSETT to Chief of Staff in the Office of General Counsel. Deputy General Counsel for Administrative Law ASHLEY BOIZELLE has been in turn promoted to Deputy General Counsel for Litigation, while Special Counsel MICHAEL CARLSON will take over BOIZELLE's role as Deputy General Counsel for Administrative Law.

“I am very excited that such talented attorneys are willing to assist me with the critical task of providing sound legal representation to the Commission,” said General Counsel TOM JOHNSON. “DAVID has served with distinction as the Deputy General Counsel for Litigation for five years under four General Counsels, in which role he has argued some of our most challenging appeals, overseen our entire litigation docket, and consulted on potential litigation issues in pending matters.  He will bring that wealth of experience to bear as my new Deputy General Counsel/Chief of Staff. 

"ASHLEY brings an invaluable combination of skills to the Litigation Deputy position after two years expertly advising the Commission and overseeing the Administrative Law Division, and as a former accomplished appellate lawyer in private practice.  MICHAEL has already ably tackled some of my Office’s most complex and sensitive matters as Special Counsel and will be a worthy successor to ASHLEY as Ad Law Deputy. 

"And Deputy General Counsel MICHELE ELLISON will continue her exemplary work heading up our Transactions, Bankruptcy, and Fraud teams and using her considerable executive leadership skills to assist me with the overall management of the Office.”
