	Miguel Estrada - SourceWatch
		For Estrada - who at one point was rumored to be a possible Supreme Court nominee - the withdrawal ends a two-year waiting game in which his nomination for the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia never got beyond the Senate floor.

	People For the American Way - Miguel Estrada
		Estrada was criticized prior to the hearing for his vigorous argument in one of his anti-loitering cases that the NAACP did not even have standing on behalf of its members to pursue the claim that the ordinance had a discriminatory impact.
		Estrada has “consistently downplayed” the problem of “the use of racial profiling by law enforcement.” Although he acknowledged the existence of the problem at his hearing, he continued to “downplay” it, suggesting that we have “come a long way” on such issues.
		Estrada has clearly failed to demonstrate that he possesses the judicial temperament and the commitment to fundamental civil and constitutional rights and liberties that must be shown by a nominee for such an important, lifetime position.
