WASHINGTON (Reuters) - White House lawyer Ty Cobb is leaving his post, likely by the end of May, the New York Times quoted him as telling the paper on Wednesday.
He will likely be replaced by veteran Washington lawyer Emmet Flood, who advised former President Bill Clinton in impeachment proceedings, the Times reported, citing two people briefed on the matter.
Neither Cobb nor Flood immediately responded to requests for comment by Reuters.
