1. So according to the article Chatigny didn't make it.

Excerpt:

Judge Robert Chatigny, who Obama nominated for a seat on the Second Circuit Court of Appeals but had been held up over his positions on judicial restraint and sexual offenders, was not sent back to the Senate for consideration.

3. Another chance for Louis Butler in Wisconsin

He was a dedicated public defender and great justice on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, denied reelection by a miserable, racist right-wing slime campaign and replaced by a dim bulb. May justice prevail this time around.

4. Wikipedia has updated their lists and 'detailed' footnotes.
