Sonia Sotomayor is to be nominated to replace Justice Souter on the Supreme Court.
As far as I can tell, she seems to be a very capable choice. She is intelligent, worked hard to achieve what she has, and she has been a prosecutor, private litigator, trial judge, and appellate judge.
I do not, however, have any real idea how she would lean on drug war-related issues, including the 4th Amendment. I’ve glanced through ScotusBlog’s analysis of her decisions, but it hasn’t shed any particular light so far.
Thoughts?
