[Originally posted at SCOTUSblog.]

As-it-happens coverage of the Supreme Court nomination hearings for Judge Sonia Sotomayor before the Senate Judiciary Committee will occur on various broadcast or online outlets, beginning at 10 a.m. on Monday.

The first day session is expected to be occupied largely by opening statements from members of the Committee. As expected, live coverage will be available more widely when the nominee begins her testimony.

As is customary these days, full gavel-to-gavel coverage will not be available on the major commercial television networks. ABC-News, for example, will provide full coverage only through a special online presentation, here.

C-SPAN, the cable network, will begin coverage on its main TV channel on Monday, and switch to C-SPAN3 for the following days. The network will also have continuing coverage on radio and online.

The PBS (public broadcasting) network will provide live TV coverage from the beginning Monday and also will provide live streaming video at http://newshour.pbs.org, in conjunction with National Public Radio.

MSNBC.com will have live streaming video on its web site and will have a widget of Twitter commentary from Brian Williams, Pete Williams, Kelly O'Donnell and other featured Twitterers.

Sotomayor has been so controversial in the politics world but there is something we have to focus to.There is a case for walking away from enormous debts, as there is always the option of filing for bankruptcy. Bankruptcy isn't something to be taken lightly, as it isn't like buying postage stamps and you will have be consulting with bankruptcy attorneys and determine whether or not filing would be good for you. Unemployment is one of the biggest causes for filing, and foreclosure is one of the usual precursors. If you file for chapter 7, the most common filing, you will have to undergo a means test, to determine whether a person can pay all or a portion of their debts. If considering bankruptcy, make sure you have some quick cash for emergencies and talk to bankruptcy attorneys.
