After failing a senator's legal pop quiz last week, one of President Donald Trump's judicial nominees has withdrawn his nomination, a White House official confirmed Monday.

The official said Trump accepted the withdrawal of Matthew Petersen, a nominee for the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Petersen made headlines last week during his confirmation hearing after he failed to answer basic legal questions from Sen. John Kennedy, R-Louisiana.

A video of the Dec. 13 hearing garnered millions of views. Kennedy asked Petersen to define terms like “motion in limine” and “Daubert standard.” Petersen, a Federal Elections Commissioner who has never tried a case or argued a motion in court, said his background was not in litigation.
