Fourth Circuit Nominee Withdraws

Duncan Getchell asked the White House to withdraw his nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in the wake of opposition to his nomination on the grounds that he was not on the list of five candidates suggested by Virginia's two current senators. In a commentary on FindLaw, Carl Tobias argues that in light of the failed nomination, "if the President fails to select a consensus nominee expeditiously, the next chief executive will fill this vacancy."
