House received

a J.D. from Northwestern University School of Law. Mr. House has extensive
experience counseling
clients in all areas of corporate and commercial law with an emphasis on

state regulatory bodies and federal and state
courts. Mr. House has provided advice and documentation for a broad range
of transactional and corporate matters relating to energy clients. Mr.
House's principal areas of practice
consist of energy transactions, state and federal utility law and energy
regulation and administrative law and litigation. He counsels clients
on the purchase, sale, transportation
and transmission of natural gas and electricity, the wholesale and retail
aspects of energy enterprises, energy business ventures, preparation
and prosecution of applications, filings
and comments in state and federal administrative proceedings and prosecution
of related appellate litigation. He has aided in the shaping of federal
