Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher partner Helgi Walker, who has been a friend of U.S. Supreme Court justice nominee Brett Kavanaugh for more than 20 years, had been scheduled to be on a television program on the night of Monday, July 9. That was, until an invite came her way.
“The White House did a fantastic job of maintaining secrecy. Nobody knew anything for sure. Some invitations went out for the ceremony very late in the day, but they didn’t indicate who the nominee was going to be,” said Walker, who attended the East Room ceremony. The nomination rollout, she added, was “very deftly handled.”
