Fox Corp. on Wednesday announced an expanded role for EVP and Associate General Counsel Elizabeth Casey, who will now serve as a senior member of the company’s litigation and intellectual property groups.

Casey, who will report to EVP and Chief Litigation Counsel Jeff Taylor, will also continue lead the Standards & Practices Department for Fox’s national networks and the legal team that supports Fox’s advertising sales function.
