The House Judiciary Committee is tapping a top legal scholar on impeachment as it prepares for its expanded role in the impeachment inquiry.

Kaplan Hecker & Fink of counsel Joshua Matz is the latest attorney to be added to the committee’s legal team. Matz, who has been involved in several high-profile lawsuits against the Trump administration, is an expert on impeachment, offering legal expertise and firepower to the committee as it prepares for its role in impeachment proceedings.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi has tasked each of the House’s six committees with determining its best case for impeaching Trump. Those results will then be referred to the House Judiciary Committee, which will comb through the evidence and draft any articles of impeachment, if necessary.

It’s that process that Matz is most likely to play a role in, as the bulk of investigating potential wrongdoing has shifted away from the Judiciary Committee.

Democrats on the panel have been discussing potential staffing for their role of the impeachment proceedings. Bringing on a whole new team of attorneys to handle impeachment, as was done for the committee’s work on the Nixon impeachment inquiry, is among the options being floated among the Democratic caucus.
