  • Options for Federal Judicial Screening Committees Second Edition September 2011 (2D
    Options for Federal Judicial Screening Committees Second Edition September 2011 (2d. ed.) OPTIONS FOR FEDERAL JUDICIAL SCREENING COMMITTEES: Where They Are in Place, How They Operate, and What to Consider in Establishing and Managing Them The Governance Institute, the Institute for the Advancement of the American Legal System at the University of Denver (IAALS), and Governance Studies at the Brookings Institution have revised the June 2010 first edition of this guide, and will continue to issue revisions periodically. It provides United States senators, other federal legislators, and their staffs with information about creating committees to screen potential judicial and law enforcement position nominees; provides them and committee members with information about committee operations; and provides others interested in federal judicial selection with information about an often- overlooked aspect of the process. It is not a “best practices” manual, in part because relatively little is known about how such committees work and even less about what seems to work best. The most current version of the guide is available at: www.du.edu/legalinstitute and www.brookings.edu/experts/wheelerr.aspx This guide was authored principally by: Russell Wheeler, president of the Governance Institute and a Visiting Fellow in the Brookings Institution’s Governance Studies program. He has served on the IAALS Board of Advisors since its creation in 2006. Rebecca Love Kourlis, executive director of IAALS. She served on Senator Ken Salazar’s screening committee and co-chaired the committee that Senators Mark Udall and Michael Bennet appointed to screen candidates for two District of Colorado vacancies. (Malia Reddick, director of judicial programs for the Institute, assists with ongoing revisions.) The Institute for the Advancement of the American Legal System (IAALS) is a national, independent research center dedicated to continuous improvement of the process and culture of the civil justice system.

Jacob Wohl, SDNY Case No. 20 Civ. 8668 (VM)(OTW) Dear Judge Marrero: Pursuant to this Court’s Individual Rule II(A), the Office of the New York State Attorney General (“NYAG” or “Office”), on behalf of the People of the State of New York, respectfully requests a pre-motion conference to file a motion to intervene in the above-captioned matter. Alternatively, NYAG requests that the Court treat this letter as a motion to intervene pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 24(a)(2) and (b)(1)(B) and grant this request. The NYAG’s proposed Complaint in Intervention is attached as Exhibit A along with a proposed Order attached hereto as Exhibit B. The NYAG brings this motion now to ensure that the Court has sufficient time to consider this request, while Defendants’ interlocutory appeal to the Second Circuit is still pending.1 ECF No. 81. Moreover, discovery is in a very preliminary stage and there has been no substantive motion practice seeking summary judgment on the merits of plaintiffs’ case. Accordingly, the parties would not be burdened by the addition of NYAG to enforce and represent the rights of New York, in addition to the individual claims raised herein.

    Revised: March 18, 2020 EMERGENCY INDIVIDUAL RULES AND PRACTICES IN LIGHT OF COVID-19 Alison J. Nathan, United States District Judge Chambers Email: [email protected] Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, these Emergency Individual Rules and Practices apply to all matters before Judge Nathan (whether criminal or civil and whether involving a pro se party or all counseled parties), and they are a supplement to Judge Nathan’s standard Individual Rules and Practices. If there is a conflict between these Rules and Judge Nathan’s standard Individual Rules and Practices, these Rules control. 1. No Paper Submissions Absent Undue Hardship A. No papers, including courtesy hard copies of any filing or document, may be submitted to Chambers.

In the event that a party or counsel is unable to submit a document electronically — either by ECF or email — the document may be mailed to the Court.
