Poetic Justice?
</hdr>
<body>
<p>By Paul Gray/Reported by David Ellis
</p>
<p> A 15-member committee of the American Bar Association met
in Chicago last Saturday to evaluate David Souter's
qualifications as a potential Justice of the Supreme Court.
Imposingly named the Standing Committee on Federal Judiciary,
the panel has no official standing, but its three possible
assessments of nominees--well qualified, qualified or not
qualified--carry clout in the Senate during confirmation
hearings and votes. Intriguingly, one of the new A.B.A.
committee members who will help rate Judge Souter is William
J. Brennan III, a partner in a Princeton, N.J., law firm and
the son of the retiring Justice whom Souter hopes to replace.
