U.S. Attorney Colm Connolly Nominated for Vacant Judicial Position

The White House announced last Tuesday it has nominated U.S. Attorney Colm F. Connolly to fill the vacant judicial position in the District Court for the District of Delaware. The position was left vacant when former district court judge Kent A. Jordan was elevated to a position on the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. Judge Jordan was confirmed to the Third Circuit on December 8, 2006. The nomination of Colm Connolly will now proceed to the U.S. Senate for confirmation.
