Sierra Club attorney Robert Wiygul, questioning employees of the Mississippi Development Authority at the first hearing on a lawsuit by the Gulf Restoration Network and the Sierra Club filed over the Mississippi Development Authority’s proposed rules for oil and gas seismic testing, drilling and production in the Mississippi waters, Wednesday, Aug. 8, 2012, in Jackson, Miss. Wiygul argues the state was biased in favor of allowing drilling, when the law only said the state could offer such leases. (AP Photo/Rogelio V. Solis)
