Happy Friday from Brad and Avalon here at Law.com’s Bench Report. In case you somehow missed it, President Biden announced 16 federal judicial nominees this week–the most in a single week since he took office, and some were for a court in a purple state. We have more below on what some court watchers think about that. Plus, we talk to conservative scholar Josh Blackman about recent court reform proposals. Our inboxes are open.
