Jack,
I am painfully aware that some people send cruel messages claiming that judges have died, creating vacancies. Unfortunately, this is one of those messages but unlike so many others, it is true. I regret to inform you that Judge Susanne Groebner (elected in the 2020 election cycle to the 13th Subcircuit) passed away earlier today. My condolences to her family.
