Three judges on the Eleventh Circuit easily could appear on this list of serious candidates from the courts of appeals, although I consider them somewhat less likely for various reasons.
Hon. Aldaberto Jordan was confirmed to the Eleventh Circuit by a vote of 94-5. He previously served as a district court judge, confirmed 93-1.
Hon. Jill Pryor was unanimously confirmed to the Eleventh Circuit.
Hon. Robin Rosenbaum was unanimously confirmed to the Eleventh Circuit, and previously served as a district judge (confirmed 92-3) and worked as a prosecutor.

Add Robin Rosenbaum to SCOTUSblog's shortlist
Tom Goldstein puts Rosenbaum along with Jordan and Pryor (Jill), right outside of the top 5:
Judge Rosenbaum would be amazing on the Supreme Court. Only negative is I would hate to lose her on the 11th Cir.
ReplyDeleteEd Newman. He'd fill the pro-football player seat on the court that's been unfilled since the death of Whizzer White.
ReplyDeleteLove Ed Newman, but he couldn't carry Justice White's jock.
ReplyDeleteNext Justice will be former AFPD.
ReplyDeleteCaruso for SCOTUS!
