Judicial Hub provides clear, up-to-date data on judicial appointments across the federal and state judiciaries, along with articles and projects on the courts and the people who shape them.

Vacancies on the Scope
By Judicial Hub
Future judicial vacancies, tracked by their announced vacancy date. The nearer a seat sits to center, the sooner it opens; seats with no set date sit at the outer rim, marked TBD. Right now, … seats have a vacancy date within the next 6 months. Positions update live as each date approaches.
Data on Judicial Hub is compiled by hand from several sources, including the Federal Judicial Center and the United States Courts. Among other things, Judicial Hub records which president appointed each judge and that president's party. Neither indicates how a judge will rule in a particular case or what a judge's ideology is.
