[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If one of the judges passes in the next month, can ketanji Brown step in or does she have to take breyer's seat?[/quote] Not sure. Roberts was originally nominated to take O’Connor’s seat when she announced her retirement but then Rehnquist died and he ended up taking his slot instead.[/quote] I think she was specifically nominated for the Breyer seat. The nomination document (the official one) states who the person is replacing. So it would just be an open seat unless she was renominated and reconfirmed for that open seat. I think. "Ketanji Brown Jackson, of the District of Columbia, to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, vice Stephen G. Breyer, retiring." it says. In Roberts' case Bush renominated him as chief justice after Rehnquist died. [/quote]
