<b>BREAKING NEWS</b> Supreme Court Hopeful Leaves Bench
Appeals Judge J. Michael Luttig, a Supreme Court contender and longtime fixture of the conservative legal landscape, made a sudden announcement on May 10 that he was leaving the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit immediately for the job of senior vice president and general counsel of the Boeing Co.
Luttig, a former law clerk to the late Chief Justice Warren Burger and to Antonin Scalia when Scalia was an appeals judge, was on President George W. Bush's short-list for the recent Supreme Court vacancies filled by John Roberts Jr. and Samuel Alito Jr.
The prospects for another white male to be named to the next vacancy appear slim, but in an interview, Luttig said his high court chances were not a factor. 'This was a larger decision about my life and my family.' The 51-year-old judge also agreed that taking the corporate job does not close the door to future public service, noting that in recent years there have been suggestions that Supreme Court justices be picked from outside the bench.
