         UNANIMOUS CONSENT REQUEST--EXECUTIVE CALENDAR NO. 169

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I now ask unanimous consent that at a time 
determined by the majority leader, after consultation with the 
Democratic leader, the Senate proceed to executive session for the 
consideration of Calendar No. 169, the nomination of Carolyn Kuhl, to 
be U.S. Circuit Judge for the Ninth Circuit; further, that there be 4 
hours of debate equally divided in the usual form, and that following 
that debate, the Senate proceed to a vote on the confirmation of the 
nomination, with no intervening action or debate; finally, I ask 
consent that following that vote, the President be immediately notified 
of the Senate's action and the Senate then resume legislative session.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Mr. REID. The Senator from Nevada objects.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
  Mr. FRIST. I would ask if the request were modified to 10 or 12 
hours, would it be agreed to?
  Mr. REID. At this time, it would not.
