The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday held a hearing to consider nominations for four Pennsylvania judicial candidates selected by President Obama to fill seats on the federal bench.
At the hourlong hearing, members of the committee posed questions and went into the backgrounds of Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas Judge John Milton Younge, nominated to fill a seat on the Eastern District bench; and Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas Judge Robert John Colville, U.S. Magistrate Judge Susan Paradise Baxter and Butler County Court of Common Pleas Judge Marilyn Jean Horan, all nominated to fill seats on the Western District bench.
