Trump gets to fill yet another vacancy on powerful Atlanta court
|
[AJC] President Donald Trump has yet another seat to fill on the federal appeals court in Atlanta, giving him the chance to appoint almost half of the court’s judges during his first term in office.
Judge Stanley Marcus became the latest member of the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to tell Trump he will take senior status with a reduced caseload. Marcus said he will become a senior judge when his successor is sworn into office or on March 2, whichever comes first.
Current ideological make up of the 11th Circuit is 6R/6D. Two judges have announced they will take senior status - Tjoflat, appointed by Ford and Marcus appointed by Clinton. Once their replacements are confirmed the court will shift to 7R/5D making the 11th the second (or third depending on how you count) federal appeals court to shift to a majority of R appointees under Trump.
