Interview list for Judge Rosenbaum's seat

Yesterday, I posted the link to the JNC's list of interviewees for Judge Rosenbaum's seat.  The Commission decided to interview 15 of the 24 people who applied.  Of those fifteen, 11 are state court judges.  There is a federal prosecutor and a federal magistrate.   Sadly, there are only two private lawyers.  

Each interview will last 25 minutes in the Judge's conference room in the Ferguson building.  Interviews are open to the public, so please let me know if you'd like to guest blog the interviews.  The JNC has invoked "the Rule" so applicants aren't permitted to watch other applicants.

Here is the list:

Martin J. Bidwell
Beatrice A. Butchko
Jeffrey J. Colbath
Mary Barzee Flores
David A. Haimes
Migna Sanchez-Llorens
Peter R. Lopez
Thomas Rebull
Meenu Sasser
Barry S. Seltzer
Edward N. Stamm
John W. Thornton, Jr.
Daryl E. Trawick
Jack Tuter
Melissa Damian Visconti

    ugh.... seltzer should have been given the nod years ago, if only due to his persistence. sadly, bidwell is the best of the state court bunch.

    A sleeper might be Tuter. Very professional. Courteous to all litigants and runs his courtroom in a very workmanlike manner. Very unpretentious.

    Lopez, a state judge and former private attorney for 10+ years. Thornton, a state judge, former prosecutor and private attorney who ran his own firm for 20+ years, and Seltzer, a federal magistrate, former AUSA and state judge. Fabulous choices.
