New Jersey Governor Nominates Democrat to Supreme Court

The New Jersey governor Chris Christie stepped down from a deadlock with senate Democrats over a seat in the  Supreme court of New Jersey. He said that he would propose a Democrat and withdraw his Republican nominee.

Since 2012, the governor  had been trying to place David F.Bauman, a Superior Court judge, on the highest court of the state, while the hearings regarding nomination was being declined by the Democrats.

Mr. Christi made efforts for Mr. Bauman’s confirmation earlier, but the consideration of any Republican was denied by the Senate President Stephen Sweeney.

Now Mr. Christie said that he would nominate Democrat Walter F. Timpone. Morristown-based attorney, Timpone is with firm McElroy, Deutsch, Mulvaney & Carpenter LLP. Messrs.

“He’s enormously well trained and has the right experience,” the governor said. “You want the people sitting on the state’s highest courts to be of unquestioned integrity.”
