Judicial Confirmation

Judicial confirmation is the process by which the President of the United States appoints a nominee to serve as a judge or justice, and their appointment is then reviewed and approved by the Senate. This process involves careful examination of the nominee’s qualifications, background, and suitability for the role. If the Senate agrees that the nominee is qualified, they will confirm the appointment, allowing the individual to serve on the federal bench. This process helps ensure that qualified and competent individuals are selected to interpret and uphold the law.
