Senatorial courtesy is the practice where the president gives deference to the senators from the home state of a judicial vacancy. It means that the president will consult with the senators before making a nomination and will typically only nominate someone who has their approval. This tradition is strongest for district court nominations but weaker for appeals court and Supreme Court nominations.
