Who Sits Where: Pre-Slating is over and now things really get interesting

Herewith, an updated Who Sits Where. My list is no doubt incomplete. But I only include vacancies I can verify. I will update this list as necessary or appropriate.

However incomplete my list may be, it is so far still better than the "Judicial Vacancies" page of the new Supreme Court website: It shows no vacancies at all, not even the two posted recently by Justice Theis (presumably because applications for those vacancies are now closed, because those vacancies were posted during the application period).

Where a vacancy has been filled by an interim Supreme Court appointment, I have provided the identity of the appointee. If history is any guide, there will be several more vacancies opening up in the months to come.

As always, all errors of omission or commission in this list are mine alone and I am grateful for additions and corrections provided.

Hello all. EP here.
I did not write the demand appearing on Tuesday, October 19, @ 5:54 PM. Too busy trying to get Hispanics slated county-wide and working on a consensus candidate for the vacancy in the 6th sub circuit. And then there is the little matter about using capital letters for every single word in the sentence. The nuns taught me better than that. L. O. L.
As always, the real EP.
