Federal
- Two federal judges chose to take senior status effective January 1, 2017. Those judges are Robert Chatigny of the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut and Donald Nugent of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. By Ballotpedia’s count, there will be more than 120 federal judicial vacancies awaiting President-elect Donald Trump on his first day in office, adding up to mean that more than 12 percent of federal judicial positions will require a presidential nomination.
