Roberts refers judicial misconduct complaints against Kavanaugh to federal appeals court in Colorado
Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. on Wednesday referred more than a dozen judicial misconduct complaints filed recently against Brett M. Kavanaugh to a federal appeals court in Colorado.
The 15 complaints, related to statements Kavanaugh made during his Senate confirmation hearings, were initially filed with the federal appeals court in Washington, where Kavanaugh served for the last 12 years before his confirmation Saturday to the Supreme Court.
A judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit had asked Roberts to refer the filings to another appeals court for review after determining that they should not be handled by judges who served with Kavanaugh on the appellate court.
In a letter Wednesday to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit, Roberts said he had selected the court in Colorado to “accept the transfer and to exercise the powers of a judicial council with respect to the identified complaints and any pending or new complaints relating to the same subject matter.”
