recess appointments
A recess appointment occurs when a President fills a vacant federal position by bypassing the Senate because of Congressional recess. Recess appointments are temporary. Appointees must be confirmed by the Senate after the next election.
There are no current Supreme Court justices who were recess appointments. However, President George Washington appointed John Rutledge as Chief Justice in a recess appointment; his appointment was later rejected by the Senate. President Eisenhower also made three recess appointments to the Supreme Court, all of whom were later confirmed by the Senate.
The President appoints or nominates people to fill these positions but the Senate must approve them before they can take office unless a vacancy occurs while the Senate is in recess.
The Senate has to approve the President's choices for "cabinet positions," that is, the heads of Executive branch departments. The President does have the authority to temporarily appoint a cabinet position without approval, if the Senate is not in session; that's called a "recess appointment." Recently, we had an interesting thing: the President appointed a cabinet position at a time when he said the Senate was not in session, and the Senate said they were.
