Kagan SCOTUS Nomination Round-Up
Hat tip to the Resource Shelf for Fast Facts About Supreme Court Nominee, Elena Kagan; Including Appearances on C-SPAN.
Reaction to the nomination by politicians and interest groups listed with links on SCOTUSblog here, early press coverage here and commentary here.
NPR stories include Kagan's Positions On Hot-Button Issues In Spotlight, Kagan Likely To Be Pressed On Writings, Experience, and Having Judged Not, How Will Kagan Be Judged?("If Elena Kagan is confirmed, she will become the first Supreme Court justice in four decades to ascend to the high court with no previous judicial experience.")
Update: The Georgetown Law Library has updated its Supreme Court Nominations Guide to include materials on Kagan. Hat tip to Sara Sampson, Head of Reference, Georgetown Law Library. In her list-serv announcement, Sara adds that the Georgetown Law Library's reference department will be keeping the guide up to date as more materials become available.
