Bush nominates Va. judge to fill vacancy on 4th Circuit
Headline News
A federal judge in Virginia is President Bush's pick to fill one of several vacancies on the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, widely viewed as the most conservative federal appellate bench in the country.
The White House announced Thursday that Bush had nominated Glen E. Conrad to the Richmond, Va.-based appeals court, which has handled some of the country's biggest terrorism cases.
Conrad has been a judge on the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia since 2003.
If confirmed by the Senate, Conrad would fill the seat of H. Emory Widener Jr., who died last year.
Conrad, 58, a native of Radford, Va., is a 1974 graduate of the College of William and Mary and the Marshall Wythe School of Law. From 1976 to 2003, Conrad was a federal magistrate judge in the Western District of Virginia's Abingdon, Charlottesville and Roanoke divisions.
