    Nominations for United States Court of Appeals Judges

     August 7, 1993

        The President yesterday nominated three U.S. Court of Appeals
    judges: Martha Craig Daughtrey for the sixth circuit, Pierre N. Leval
    for the second circuit, and M. Blane Michael for the fourth circuit. In
    addition, the President also announced the nominations of U.S. District
    Court judges for Maryland, South Dakota, Nebraska, New Mexico, the
    Eastern District of New York, the Eastern District of Virginia, the
    Eastern District of Kentucky, and the Eastern District of Arkansas.
        ``There are few things that I will do that will have more lasting
    effect than the appointment of Federal judges,'' said the President.
    ``Along with Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court and the many other
    judges yet to be named, this outstanding group of jurists will change
    the face of the Federal courts and help move our country forward.''

    Note: Biographies of the nominees were made available by the Office of
    the Press Secretary.
