The committee considered the nominations of Allison Jones Rushing to become a US Circuit Judge for the Fourth Circuit, Thomas P. Barber and Wendy Williams Berger to become US District Judges for the Middle District of Florida, Corey Landon Maze to become US District Judge for the Northern District of Alabama, Rodney Smith to become US District Judge for the Southern District of Florida and T. Kent Wetherell II to become US District Judge for the Northern District of Florida.
Our other two nominees, Rudy Ruiz and Roy Altman, came out of committee a few months ago and are waiting for their final vote.
Any word on viable candidates for the other 2 bench openings?
ReplyDeleteNo. The President of the United States is far too busy insulting people and providing cover for the Saudis.

ReplyDeleteActually if you look at the legal landscape at the Federal Circuit level, there is one circuit that stands out as "nutty" at least in the criminal law area: our own Eleventh Circuit which is out of step with a majority of the other circuits.
