That's literally not the way anything works. Her nomination never should have made it out of the Senate. Assessing a judge's qualifications is literally their JOB.
Once a Federal judge is seated, you're stuck with them, unless Congress impeaches them or the rest of the Federal judges vote them off the bench.
@mcfate It is their job, but when they're pushing through a nomination purely for political reasons to stack the court with judges they perceive will be loyal to them, they don't look too deeply at qualifications.
Having a case tried isn't like getting your car repaired, you don't get to weigh in on how good you think the judge is.
You're not HIRING the judge.
Apples, oranges.
@divisionbyzero
Federal judges are assigned to cases on a lottery basis, it's completely random.
If Smith wants to appeal her conduct, he has to wait β generally speaking β for the case to be completed in her court.
Telling her that you don't recognize her qualifications will just get you cited for contempt.
