My new Confirmation Tales post presents five judicial-confirmation trivia questions. If you get two right (without cheating), that’s a passing score. (I wouldn’t have done better than that.) The toughest questions are #1 and #4:

1. Who was the first lower-court federal nominee to have a vote on a cloture motion on his or her nomination?
4. Who was the most recent Supreme Court justice to take his or her seat by recess appointment?

Please submit your answer in the comments section of the Confirmation Tales post.
