Griffith to be renominated

The White House said today that President Bush will re-nominate Tom Griffith, BYU general counsel, to a seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. Griffith failed to win Senate confirmation in 2004, apparently in part due to failure to pay D.C. bar dues and failure to become licensed to practice law in Utah. Here's hoping it goes better next time around for Griffith and the 19 other federal judge nominees the White House will nominate again next year.
