President Donald Trump announced 11 new judicial nominees this week, including one from his U.S. Supreme Court short list, the ABA Journal reports. Trump pulled Colorado Supreme Court Justice Allison Eid’s name from his SCOTUS list to nominate her for a seat on the Denver-based 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, which was vacated by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch. Also nominated to appellate seats on the bench are University of Pennsylvania law professor Sephanos Bibas to the Philadelphia-based 3rd Circuit and U.S. District Judge Ralph Erickson, nominated to the St. Louis-based 8th Circuit.
