The Relationship Tree

Every actor documented on this site, every institution they came through, every case they touch. Filter by cluster to isolate a pipeline; hover any node for a one-line mini-bio; click any person node to open their dossier. Rendered from actors/_data.php, actors/_relationships.php, and actors/_graph.php. Not decorative — an analytical artifact.

Static text alternative: the same relationships are catalogued at /actors/relationships (cluster view + counsel roster + typed edges from _relationships.php). The graph on this page adds alma-mater, prior-employment, same-firm, bar-section co-panelist, appointment-by, supervises, case-linkage, and Bacon-defense edges from _graph.php.
