Even in a pandemic, ACBA Job Board sees flurry of activity By Brian Knavish the COviD-19 pandemic has caused untold chaos in numerous areas of life.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Washington and Lee Law Review Online by an authorized editor of Washington & Lee University School of Law Scholarly Commons. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Recalibrating Judicial Renominations in the Trump Administration Carl Tobias* Abstract Now that President Donald Trump has commenced the fifth month of his administration, federal courts experience 121 circuit and district court vacancies. These statistics indicate that Mr. Trump has a valuable opportunity to approve more judges than any new President. The protracted open judgeships detrimentally affect people and businesses engaged in federal court litigation, because they restrict the expeditious, inexpensive and equitable disposition of cases. Nevertheless, the White House has been treating crucial issues that mandate careful attention—specifically establishing a government, confirming a Supreme Court Justice, and keeping numerous campaign promises. How, accordingly, can President Trump fulfill these critical duties and his constitutional responsibility to nominate and, with Senate advice and consent, appoint judges? This Article initially canvasses judicial appointments in the administration of President Barack Obama.

    The Bicentennial of the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania 1818-2018 The Bicentennial of the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania In 2018, the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania hosted a four-part series of events presented in honor of its bicentennial. Established in 1818, the courts of the Western District have been the battleground of disputes reflective of an evolving Western Pennsylvania. Societal, technological, and economic issues affecting the development of the region have been decided by the District Court’s fifty-nine commissioned judges and the Bankruptcy Court’s eleven appointed judges, as well as the District Court’s magistrate judges, bankruptcy registers, and bankruptcy referees. In celebration of its 200th anniversary, the Honorable Joy Flowers Conti, Chief U.S. District Judge, called for the development of a series of programs worthy of the occasion. Chief Judge Conti, along with the Honorable Jeffery A. Deller, Chief U.S. Bankruptcy Judge, and the rest of the Historical Committee for the District Court, spearheaded the planning of the events. Below is the membership of the Historical Committee: Chief District Judge Conti • Chief Bankruptcy Judge Deller • U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Thomas P. Agresti • U.S. District Judge Maurice B.
