Beck Redden partner Nicholas Bruno has co-authored "The Once and Future Oral Argument," published in the Summer 2026 edition of The Appellate Advocate, the professional journal of the Appellate Section of the State Bar of Texas.

Written with Justice David Gunn of the First Court of Appeals, the article examines how oral argument in Texas has changed significantly over the decades. Once granted liberally, it grew scarce as intermediate courts' dockets swelled, fell further during the pandemic, and is now climbing back.

Beck Redden’s Matthew Whitley has written a new article for Intellectual Asset Management (IAM), called "Why patent trial strategy begins before trial."
