Description

I. INTRODUCTION The literature on judicial selection systems has given considerable attention to the role that politicians and their parties--through their legislative roles--have played in the adoption and operation of these judicial selection systems. Less attention, however, has been given to both the effect that interest groups, broadly defined, have in the creation and implementation of judicial selection systems and the effect that these systems have on the strategies adopted by interest groups to accomplish their goals. This Article seeks to fill this gap. using the framework advanced by William M. Landes and Richard A. Posner in their seminal article on judicial independence, (1) we explore the relationships between interest groups and the functioning of judicial selection systems at both the federal and state levels.
