Good
Genuinely asking, is having her as a federal judge better than having her continue to litigate cases? The article even says she’s unlikely to see many of more important cases due to her representing a rather liberal district.
Federal rulings set a legal precedent and can then be used in future rulings. So all of her court decisions can/will be used in the future to convince judges to make similar rulings.
Judges have way more power than lawyers. The more sane, liberal judges we have is very good for our democracy.
It depends. For example, depending on the situation, one could shop for them as a specific judge. That’s a really unfair and immoral thing to do though, so nobody does that…
Wouldn’t this at least advance her career for a possible SCOTUS nomination?
I forgot this was a thing! hope it doesn’t happen.
Fucking finally confirming judges again
