Outgoing U.S. Attorney Joe Hogsett will join private Indianapolis-based law firm Bose, Mckinney and Evans LLP effective August 1, according to a press release issued by the firm this morning.

Hogsett will join the firm as a partner in its Litigation Group focusing on internal investigations and corporate audits. He will begin work there the day after his resignation as U.S. Attorney for Indiana's Southern District becomes official July 31.

Hogsett submitted his resignation as earlier this month in a letter to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder. That announcement has led to speculation he might run for the Democratic nomination in next year's Indianapolis mayoral election.
