Revision as of 18:17, 3 March 2005
Lawyer. Article reads like a resume for jobhunting purposes. He has been assistant of a number of well-known offices, but hasn't himself reached a very notable position. Radiant! 11:47, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)

- Delete, not notable, possible vanity. Megan1967 00:22, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Weak keep, with qualms. Estrada is notable because he was nominated as a candidate for the D.C. Circuit of the Court of Appeals. (Associated Press reports via CNN: [1], [2]). Some believed he was being groomed as a potential Supreme Court nominee. Democrats filibustered his nomination vote—it's the first time in history a filibuster has been used to kill an appeals court nomination. The story was in and out of the news for about two years. The qualm(s): The article is essentially a cut and paste job from the cited 'source' at the bottom of the page [3]; that should be fixed. I don't know what the copyright status of this DOJ website is. I would guess public domain but we still should have something better than a resume. Failing to mention the nomination hearings is a woeful omission—it's probably the only reason he is notable. --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 01:37, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
