The nominations of Waverly Crenshaw as U.S. District Judge for the Middle District of Tennessee and Travis McDonough as U.S. District Judge for the Eastern District of Tennessee have been approved by the Senate Judiciary Committee. If confirmed, McDonough, who now serves as the chief of staff to Mayor Andy Berke, will take the place of Judge Curtis Collier who is moving to senior status, the Chattanoogan reports. Crenshaw would replace U.S. District Judge William Joseph Haynes Jr., who took senior status in December.
