U.S. Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan submitted her answers Tuesday to a background questionnaire from the Senate Judiciary Committee — opening windows into her year as solicitor general, her finances, and the nominating process.

Lawyers for the committee’s Democratic and Republican staffs will be combing through the materials for information to support or oppose her confirmation.
