Misha Tseytlin, a partner in Troutman Pepper Locke’s Business Litigation Practice Group, was quoted in the January 2, 2026 Law360 article, “The Topics Appellate Attys Are Tracking Most Closely In 2026.”

  • “We’ve seen a couple of very uncomfortable arguments where judges have asked counsel where they got cases,” Misha Tseytlin, appellate head at Troutman Pepper Locke LLP, noted in an interview.
  • …
  • “This was starting to happen last year and usually happening in a couple of district courts in small cases,” Tseytlin, who is based in Chicago and Washington, told Law360. “It’s now hit big firms, and it’s something that appellate judges are paying attention to. It’s something appellate practitioners are paying attention to. And it’s a very significant development.”
