Law360 sought to learn what kind of justice attorneys believed Judge Gardland could be and the challenges he faces from the Senate. 03/16/2016Litigation partner, Mark Elliott, shared his point of view with the publication:By nominating someone who is both well-qualified and perceived as a centrist, the President has put clear political pressure on the Senate to act timely and fairly with respect to this nominee. Indeed, the Senate should give Judge Garland a hearing and vote on the same timetable that they would any other Supreme Court nominee. In this very polarized, politicized atmosphere, it is critical that the legal community speak up on the importance of filling the vacancy in a timely manner.Law360 is a subscription based, legal news service operated by the Portfolio Media company, a subsidiary of LexisNexis.
