A group of law professors and administrators are rallying behind the stalled nomination of University of Wisconsin Law Professor Victoria Nourse to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit.
In a letter sent to the leaders of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee on July 14, 51 law deans and professors urged the committee to vote on Nourse?s nomination. President Obama first nominated Nourse on July 14, 2010, and nominated her again on January 5.
