(OOC: It should be understood that President Washington took a 4 day holiday on Thanksgiving week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, came back to the office on Moday and besides a little side trip to Guslantis and narrowly escaping with his life at the Pigletville ball, has been working tirelessly over the past week to come up with a replacement.)
8AM Monday 12/8/2014
Presidential office
"AHA!" the President said, "right here! This is the pick right here!" The President had been going over the file for over an hour.
The President turned to his adviors, Make a press release, this is who I want confirmed as the next central court justice.
"But sir, shouldnt we interview him first?" Exclaimed Chris Allen the Presidential Chief of staff.
The President responded gruffly; "it is not nessicary, besides we have been vetting people all week, frankly I am tired, you saw the file, the guy is a gold mind. Alunyan born Libertarian citizen - Mother Libertarian and Father unknown Alunyan, lived in Alunya thru most of his teenage years with his mom. Came back with his mom to LibertarianLand. Served in the Military, got sent to Officer Candidate school, served in the Army Airborne. Do you understand we will get the Minority and Military loving bloc on our side?"
The President paused from his long winded rant to let it sink in.
"Get this into a press release, now everyone out! Go!"
Everyone left the President and the President kept staring at the dossier file:

Bio: Maxwell-Samuel Brown henceforth known as Max was born in Culcatta General Hospital in Culcatta Alunya to LibertarianLand Mother Issabella Brown and an unknown father of Alunyan descent. Spent his childhood and most of his teenage years living in Alunya. Excelled at the top of his class in Alunyan Primary School. Graduated early at the age of 16. Moved back with mother to LibertarianLand and enrolled in the Army at age 17 with parental consent. Showed leadership Above and beyond in basic training and with prior aptitude was quicky accepted into Officer Candidate School. Was commissioned with the rank of 2nd Lieutenant in the Libertarian Army and assigned to the Airborne infantry. While in the Military the Army paid for him to take law school classes at the Libertarian branch of TNPU.
Spent 5 years in the Army and recieved an honorable discharge at the rank of 1st Lieutenant. Went to McMasterdonia to take additional studies in international Corporate Law and work on Masters of Corporate law. Met wife Sarah. Came back to LibertarianLand and got hired as a corporate lawyer and lobbyist for the Arms Manufacturing sector.
4 years ago brushed up on criminal law and left the corporate world to become a federal prosecutor. The last two years working in the Organized Crime Division where he has been successfully putting away members of the Moronni crime family.
The President kept staring at the words Alunyan, Airborne, Lieutenant, and had a post traumatic flashback to explosions and gunfire. He was remembering when he was a young Lieutenant himself in the army and was sent on an idealogical flawed mission to extract World imfamous crime lord Don Tabbichi and bring him back to LibertarianLand to face charges on drug smuggling, racketeering, extortion, and too many murders to count. The mission was covert. The Alunyan govt did not even know the Libertarians were involved to their knowledge it was another cartel going after the Tabbichi crime family. The President remembers the night that his life almost ended when his unit encountered the crime boss. However Tabbichi took pity on the young then Lieutenant Washington and his unit and spared their lives if they forgot they ever saw Tabbichi, the deal was sweetened by the fact that Tabbichi promised to make every man in the unit world powerful, but said one day Washington would have to repay his debt. Washington looked at the deep intelligence and background reports on Maxwell-Samuel Brown, and looked at the files on this supposed unknown father, President Washington knew this was how he was going to re pay the debt for Tabbichi sparing his life, by getting the son of the crime boss a seat on LibertarianLand's central court.
Suddenly the President felt queasy and dizzy. He crumpled the files on his desk on Max and threw them in his trash can and carefully stood up and made way to the Presidents Beige liquor cabinet. After a few moments Washington pulled out a top shelf bottle of Scotch and took quite a few long pulls straight from the bottle.

Special report.
We have recieved word from President Washington's camp that he has a name for congress so they can fill the Central Courts vacant spot.

McMasterdonian University.
Mr. Brown has made a name for himself as a Corporate lawyer for LibertarianLand's arm-manufacturing industry. He quit that job after quite a few years to begin working as a federal prosecutor for the last 4 years. The last 2 years Mr. Brown has been famous for putting members of the Moronni crime family behind bars.
LNN opines that we feel his experience in Business as well as Criminal law would make Maxwell Brown a good fit for the central court.

Several Hours Later, CulCatta, Alunya
The Don was sitting down for dinner it was only 6 PM in Alunya but much later in LibertarianLand, one of his henchmen busted in it was Luigi.
"Boss do you remember when you told me to find you a federal judge in LibertarianLand that you could buy off to do our bidding when the Libertarian President named them to the Central Court?"
"Yes you idiot, I remember, did you do as I commanded?" Snarled Mr. Tabbichi.
"Not exactly boss, it isnt a judge, the President named a Federal Prosecutor instead, and best of all I didn't have to pay anyone off. This fell into our laps Don Tabbichi, Washington named Max to be the nominee to the court!"
The Don sat his red wine glass down and was dumbfounded.
"The son of a bitch, is repaying his debt." "Luigi first get me my son on the phone I must congradulate him, he can strike at Moronni from the highest court in all of LibertarianLand. Then bypass Libertarian Security and get me on a phone line, secured of course with President Washington, we have much to discuss."
"Yes boss, right away."
Luigi left to do his assignments.
The Don took a big bite of his chicken parmesan and traced it with a big gulp of red wine and then wiped his face with a napkin.

Presidential bedroom
LibertarianLand
The President was having trouble sleeping, a million anxieties running through his mind, the latest being how receptive the Pro Tempor of the Senate Nanny Party member Harrison Reeder will conduct the confirmation hearings when it is the Sentates time. The President expected the house to just rubber stamp the confirmation but the Senate would be challenging. Reeder was still pissed at the President over the legi that was working for Malvad and blew his office up a few months back. (

Just then the Presidents bedside phone began to ring....
