What role should the Senate play in the selection and confirmation of judges? What criteria should be used to evaluate nominees? What kinds of questions and answers are appropriate in confirmation hearings? What problems do judges face as they interpret laws enacted by Congress? And what kinds of communications are proper between judges and legislators? Drawing on the world of scholarship and from personal experience, Robert A. Katzmann examines governance in judicial-congressional relations. After identifying problems, he offers ways to improve understanding between the two branches.
