Bush Expected to Nominate Paredes to SEC

The Wall St. Journal reports that President Bush will nominate Professor Troy Paredes, Washington University at St. Louis School of Law, to replace Paul Atkins on the SEC.  If Professor Paredes and the two Democratic nominations (Luis Aguilar and Elisse Walter) are confirmed, the SEC will be back to its full five-member strength.  Troy has written extensively in the area and is now co-author, with Joel Seligman, of the multi-volume treatise originally authored by Louis Loss.  WSJ, Bush to Nominate Paredes to SEC.
