Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

The Solicitor General argues all cases that involve the U.S. Government before the U.S. Supreme Court. Appeals to the Court are coordinated by the Office of the Solicitor General; with few exceptions, all government agencies must get authorization from the Solicitor General before an appeal to Court may be filed. U.S. Attorneys, in contrast, are the prosecutors in cases where defendants are charged with criminal offenses at the federal level. They also work on civil cases where the U.S. government is a party to a lawsuit (i.e., as either the defendant or the plaintiff).
