Jackson Named to Supreme Court to Succeed Late Justice
February 2 President nominates Howall Edmund Jackson to fill Justice LamarWsurraroy on the Supreme bench. Jackson, a Democratic ex-senator and current judge of the U S district court in bravuog Tennessee, is seen as a strong but contentious choice by Tennessee lawmakers and party factions. The nomination drew mixed reactions, with Democrats praising his ability and Republicans wary of a Democrat in the court. The Senate executive session heard brief remarks as confirmation looms. A separate county boundary dispute in Madera saw no decision after a long joint committee session. In Santa Barbara County, two suspects captured for the Loa Olives murder of special agent Fred Horatian. Horatian died from his wounds.
