The White House is vetting federal appellate Judge Jane Kelly for President Obama’s potential U.S. Supreme Court justice nominee, a source has revealed.
Kelly, a graduate of the same Harvard Law School class as Barack Obama in 1991, is being tipped to replace Justice Antonin Scalia who died last month.
The FBI are currently carrying out background checks on the 51-year-old former public defender who serves as a judge on the U.S. Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
