特朗普正式宣布三名联邦法官提名：司法部首席法律顾问在列
华盛顿 — 美国总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）11月10日在社交平台 Truth Social 连发三帖，正式宣布提名三名联邦地区法官：Grayson Lambert 出任南卡罗来纳区联邦地区法官，Elliot Gaiser 出任德州北区联邦地区法官，James Sullivan 出任德州西区联邦地区法官。三帖发表于美东时间11月10日11时51分至11时54分，三人均须经联邦参议院确认才能就任，任期为终身任职。
Lambert 现任南卡罗来纳州州长 Henry McMaster 的首席法律顾问，此前曾在一家律所任合伙人，并曾任联邦第四巡回上诉法院法官 Dennis Shedd 的法官助理。他毕业于弗吉尼亚大学与杜克大学法学院。参议院司法委员会10月下旬已收到他的提名文件，GSM 此前报道过这一步骤；白宫当时对媒体称他正被「积极考虑」、尚无新提名宣布。
Gaiser 现任司法部法律顾问办公室助理部长，是司法部向总统与行政部门提供权威法律意见的部门负责人，此前任俄亥俄州副总检察长（Solicitor General）。他毕业于芝加哥大学法学院与 Hillsdale 学院，曾任最高法院大法官 Samuel Alito、联邦上诉法院法官 Neomi Rao 与 Edith Jones 的法官助理。据路透社报道，司法委员会上周日已收到他的提名文件，白宫当时同样称尚无新提名宣布、他正被积极考虑；他与参议院方面的接触在11月3日中期选举次日就已开始。
Sullivan 现任德州最高法院法官，此前任州长 Greg Abbott 的法律总顾问与助理副总检察长，毕业于 Rice 大学与哈佛法学院，曾任联邦上诉法院法官 Thomas Griffith 的法官助理，参议员 Ted Cruz 与 John Cornyn 均向特朗普推荐他。据路透社报道，Sullivan 在11月3日的选举中竞选连任德州最高法院席位失利，司法委员会11月5日已收到他的提名文件，白宫当时亦未作宣布。
这三帖是正式宣布这一步：三人的提名文件此前已先后送达参议院司法委员会，白宫此前对三人均只称积极考虑。正式宣布后，提名将按程序在司法委员会推进听证与表决，再送参议院全体表决；截至发稿时，参议院尚未就三人采取确认行动。（来源：特朗普）

Trump Formally Announces Three Federal Judge Nominations, Including the Justice Department's Top Legal Counsel
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump, in three posts on Truth Social on November 10, formally announced three nominations to the federal district courts: Grayson Lambert for the District of South Carolina, Elliot Gaiser for the Northern District of Texas, and James Sullivan for the Western District of Texas. The posts were published between 11:51 a.m. and 11:54 a.m. Eastern Time on November 10. All three must be confirmed by the U.S. Senate before taking their seats, which carry life tenure.
Lambert is chief legal counsel to South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster, was previously a partner at a law firm, and clerked for Judge Dennis Shedd of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. He is a graduate of the University of Virginia and Duke University School of Law. The Senate Judiciary Committee received his nomination paperwork in late October, a step GSM reported at the time; the White House then told reporters he was being actively considered and that it had no new nominations to announce.
Gaiser is the assistant attorney general for the Office of Legal Counsel, the Justice Department office that gives authoritative legal advice to the president and the executive branch, and previously served as solicitor general of Ohio. A graduate of the University of Chicago Law School and Hillsdale College, he clerked for Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito and for Judges Neomi Rao and Edith Jones. According to Reuters, the Judiciary Committee received his paperwork on Sunday, the White House likewise said it had no new nominations to announce and that he was being actively considered, and his contacts with the Senate began the day after the November 3 midterm elections.
Sullivan is a justice of the Texas Supreme Court, previously general counsel and assistant solicitor general to Governor Greg Abbott, a graduate of Rice University and Harvard Law School, and a former clerk to Judge Thomas Griffith; Senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn both recommended him to Trump. According to Reuters, Sullivan lost his bid to keep his Texas Supreme Court seat in the November 3 election, the Judiciary Committee received his paperwork on November 5, and the White House made no announcement at that time.
The three posts are the formal announcement step: paperwork for all three men had already reached the Senate Judiciary Committee, and the White House had previously described each only as being actively considered. The nominations now move to committee hearings and votes, then to the full Senate; as of publication, the Senate had taken no confirmation action on the three. (Source: Donald Trump)
