Covington & Burling was paid $520,000 to handle "inquiries concerning company's construction and service contracts in Iraq," the firm said in a filing.

He "said the scientists, who came from prestigious institutions such as [[Georgetown University]] and the [[University of Massachusetts Amherst]], did not consider themselves to be working 'on behalf' of cigarette makers even though they were being paid by the industry." Rupp said, "We were paying them to share their views in forums where they would be usefully presented," according to [[Reuters]].<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=domesticNews&storyID=6634262 |work=Reuters |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20050406090727/https://www.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=domesticNews&storyID=6634262 |archivedate=April 6, 2005 }}</ref> === Southern Peru Copper Corporation === According to a September 2003 press release from the firm, Covington & Burling successfully argued on behalf of the [[Southern Peru Copper Corporation]] to drop a lawsuit brought against it under the [[Alien Tort Claims Act]] (ATCA) by Peruvian citizens charging the copper company with polluting communities and causing health problems.

After the settlement, U.S. Assistant Attorney [[Jonathan Malis]] said the $1.7 million in payments "fueled violence" and "paid for weapons and ammunition to kill innocent people." Holder stressed that Chiquita had asked the Department of Justice in 2003 if the payments should be stopped.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.law.com/jsp/ihc/PubArticleIHC.jsp?id=1195639472310 |title=Routine Maintenance |publisher=Law.com |date= |accessdate=2016-02-02}}</ref> === Xe Services (formerly Blackwater Worldwide) === In April 2010, [[The Hill (newspaper)|The Hill]] newspaper reported that [[Xe Services]], formerly known as Blackwater Worldwide, hired Covington & Burling to lobby on “government contracts,” according to a lobbying disclosure filing.

Lawyers from the firm who have become administration officials have been advised by ethics officials to recuse themselves in matters involving detainees represented by their former firms, but not from policy issues where they were not personally and substantially involved. [[Lanny Breuer]] is one of those who has had to recuse from some matters since leaving the firm for a government position. Covington also co-authored one of three petitioners' briefs filed in [[Boumediene v. Bush]], "and was responsible for several detainee victories" in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.
