On September 19, 2019, President Trump nominated William J. Nardini to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit for the seat previously held by Christopher Droney who assumed senior status on June 30, 2019.
It is critical that the Senate Judiciary Committee carefully review Nardini’s record before confirming him. If he and Steven Menashi, President Trump’s other pending nominee to the Second Circuit, are both confirmed, the Second Circuit will contain seven Republican appointed judges and six Democratic appointed judges. This would flip the Second Circuit from Democrat to Republican.
