WASHINGTON _ The attorney representing Rep. Devin Nunes in six lawsuits has received two recent, rare warnings from judges that raise the prospect of courts sanctioning him.
People and organizations that Nunes' attorney, Steven Biss, is suing have begun asking judges to punish him in several other instances.
Three of the requests for sanctions _ from National Public Radio, Twitter and a government whistleblower advocate _ mark an escalation in their defense against defamation lawsuits Biss has filed.
