Prior to joining a private law practice and later the U.S. Attorney’s office,, Glover was selected as a law clerk for Chief Judge Richard A. Posner of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit in Chicago and for Justice Sandra Day O’Connor of the U.S. Supreme Court.
Kahn breezed through the committee approval process last year, but her nomination was in jeopardy after the full Senate failed to schedule a confirmation vote late in the year.
Kahn is Biden’s second Connecticut nominee to the influential U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, known for defining law on contracts, securities, antitrust matters and other commercial questions. The court, a few blocks above Wall Street, takes federal appeals from New York, Connecticut and Vermont.
