Noah Purcell is an American lawyer and current Solicitor General of the State of Washington, best known for representing Washington in the state's challenge to President Donald J. Trump's first Travel Ban in the 2017 case Washington v. Trump.

Early life

Purcell graduated from Franklin High School in the Mount Baker neighborhood of Seattle. He graduated from the University of Washington in 2002, where he earned a Mary Gates Leadership award for his work on affordable tuition. He later earned a J. D. from Harvard Law School, where he served as an editor of the Harvard Law Review.[1][2]

Legal career

After graduating from Harvard Law School, Purcell clerked for Associate Justice of the Supreme Court David Souter and D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals Judge David S. Tatel.[3] Souter, who served as the Attorney General of New Hampshire from 1976 to 1978, stated that "Noah was a terrific law clerk, and he'll be a terrific Solicitor General."

From 2009 to 2010, Purcell served in the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, where he worked to challenge Arizona's immigration law that was put in place during the administration of then-Governor Jan Brewer.{{Citation needed|date=January 2019}} Prior to his appointment to the office of the Solicitor General, he was an associate at Seattle law firm Perkins Coie, handling appellate matters.{{Citation needed|date=January 2019}} Purcell has litigation experience and knowledge as in the areas of constitutional issues, campaign financing, and environmental law, and administrative law. {{Citation needed|date=January 2019}}

Solicitor General of Washington

Purcell succeeded retiring Solicitor General, Maureen Hart. Purcell is a member of the King County Bar Association, and was awarded the Friend of the Legal Profession Award by the association in 2017.[4]

Travel ban

Under Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson, Purcell played a major role in litigating Donald Trump's Executive Order 13769 which restricted travel to the United States from seven Muslim-majority nations. The case was initially heard by Judge James Robart of the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington, before being appealed to a panel of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.[5][6][7] After the successful halt of President Trump's first travel ban, Ferguson, Purcell and Robart were named one of the most influential Seattleites of 2017.[8]
