The state Senate confirmed Rachel Wainer Apter and Douglas Fasciale to fill two seats on the New Jersey Supreme Court.
Murphy on Monday praised “the extraordinary grace and fortitude that Rachel has demonstrated over the last year and a half as she waited for this day.”
There was similar worry Monday on the Senate floor. Sen. Michael Doherty, R-Warren, said he would not vote for Wainer Aprter because the sum total of “her legal career, whether in private practice, with the ACLU, or as director of the Division of Civil Rights, has been the misuse of litigation and manipulation of the courts to compel social change.”
Although Wainer Apter is “intellectually qualified,” Bramnick said, “there is no evidence of moderation.”Sen. Michael Testa, R-Cumberland said she seemed more interested in setting law and policy than interpreting law and adjudicating disputes.No Democrats spoke out to defend Wainer Apter, although they voted to approve her appointment.“I would fairly apply all U.S. Supreme Court decisions if confirmed,” she said.
She also clerked for Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the U.S. Supreme Court, Judge Robert Katzmann on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, and Judge Jed Rakoff on the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York after law school at Harvard.
