  • A federal judge in North Carolina appointed by Barack Obama has rescinded his plans to take "senior status," making him the third Democratic appointee to do so since Donald Trump won the election. The post 'Slap in the face': Another Obama-appointed judge rescinds 'senior status' and becomes third on federal bench to pull reverse retirement on Trump since he won the election first appeared on Law & Crime.

The article discusses a notable trend where three federal judges, all appointed by former President Barack Obama, have rescinded their senior status, effectively reversing their retirement plans since Donald Trump won the 2016 election. The latest judge to do so is U.S. District Judge John Bates, who had previously announced his intent to take senior status in 2014 but decided to remain active on the bench. This move is perceived by some as a "slap in the face" to Trump, as it prevents him from appointing replacements. Critics argue that these judges are motivated by political opposition to Trump, aiming to block his influence on the judiciary. This phenomenon has sparked discussions on judicial ethics, the politicization of the judiciary, and the implications for the balance of power in the U.S. legal system.
