Well show you what experts are saying about what could be a long political battle to find his replacement on the Supreme Court. After the break.

President obama says he will appoint a replacement in due time but Senate Republicans nomination because they say that task should fall to the next president. Experts say that could lead to a battle that could leave the longest vacancy of the Supreme Courts history possibly up to 16 months. That might not affect some cases but it leaves a lot of uncertainties if the court has a 4to4 split. Schmucker we have a third branch. We expect that branch to function. You cant expect it to function without a person in there. While many argue there is an unwritten rule that the president should not appoint a Supreme Court justice in an Election Year the constitution does not set time limits for candidates to be appointed or confirmed. Experts say the stakes have gotten much higher for these kinds of selections. One reason is because the next judge could potentially serve on the bench for the next 30plus years. An obamaappointed judge would likely shift the conservative court to a liberalleaning one. Office should be able to appoint, whether that person is a republican or democrat. That is his, or maybe eventually, her constitutional right and constitutional duty. Experts say the pool of possible candidates is fairly small usually coming from the Appellate Courts and a top20 law school. Including scalia all nine Supreme Court justices attended harvard or yale.

The investigation into the mass shooting in San Bernardino continues. And today a potentially key piece of today a judge ordered apple to help the fbi unlock a cell phone owned by one of the people responsible for the San Bernardino terror attack. The iphone in question was used by syed rizwan farook. He and his wife opened fire at a Holiday Party in San Bernardino last december, killing 14 people. The two were later killed in a shootout with police. The fbi has said it has tried to unlock the phone for two months without success. The judges order requires apple to disable a feature that wipes the phones data after 10 incorrect password attempts. That would let fbi experts try millions of password combinations without threatening the data. Now. Apple has said it cannot unlock newer iphones for law enforcement. Thats because the phones are engineered in such a way that apple does not have a key to break the encryption. But the judges order in this case is not asking apple to break the encryption.
