Habba channels trump

Yes, Alina Habba was a temporary U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey. Her 120-day term, initially appointed by the president, was expiring, and she was not selected to remain in the position permanently. Federal judges in the district ultimately chose Desiree Grace, her second-in-command, to replace her, according to the New Jersey Monitor.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:
  • 120-day appointment:
    Habba's initial appointment as acting U.S. Attorney was for 120 days.

  • Judges' role:
    Federal law dictates that if a presidential nominee for U.S. Attorney is not confirmed by the Senate after 120 days, the judges in the relevant district can choose a replacement.

  • Judges' decision:
    In this case, the judges in New Jersey's U.S. District Court opted to replace Habba with Desiree Grace.

  • Trump administration response:
    The Trump administration initially indicated Grace had been "removed," but she stated she intended to begin her term.

  • Habba's background:
    Habba had no prior experience as a prosecutor before being appointed to the interim position.
 
Is there legal precedent or statute that can show that some judges can randomly reject a Presidential appointment?
Federal judges are approved by the Senate, following nomination by the President. The Constitution outlines this process through the Appointments Clause, stating the President "shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint" all federal judges.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:
  1. Nomination: The President selects a nominee for a federal judgeship.

  2. Senate Judiciary Committee Review: The Senate Judiciary Committee reviews the nominee, holding hearings and questioning them.

  3. Committee Vote: The committee votes on whether to recommend the nominee to the full Senate.

    • Senate Vote: The full Senate votes on whether to confirm the nominee.
    • Confirmation: If a majority of the Senate votes to confirm, the nominee is appointed.
 
I can tell you MAGAT ***** know nothing of the law or procedure of federal judgeships.
So say this stoner who puts yer ignorance to shame.

Now we have the Swampiest president ever, along with Bondie illegally appointing a judge.
 
MAGATs are anarchists if they don't get their way, they break the law.
 
Um, the Courts don't get to pick the US Attorney. This is a clear abuse of separation of powers.
These judges don't care if they are abusing their authority.
 
Habba got a 120-day temporary position; her time has run out, and the Senate or the judges get to pick who will fill the seat.

hhahaha this isn't a Judgeship you idiot.
 
You tell me....you are the one that claimed she's defining a Senate Order
But the state's two senators, Booker and Kim, opposed her nomination. Under the Senate Judiciary Committee's "blue slip" policy, a nomination for U.S. attorney or to a federal district court will not move forward unless both home-state senators return positive blue slips.

That is a courtesy, not a hard written rule.

At least you finally realized this isn't about a judgeship....keep trying

The Blue Slip policy is for Judges though, not US Attorneys.
 
She has neither been nominated nor appointed
