No, he was not a judicial appointee. He is a great conservative though
My Senators, Shelby and Sessions have been great. Sessions was a U.S Attorney and Alabama Attorney General. Here’s his bio if you are interested.

I sent emails to both Senators asking that they vote no on the Senate abomination of a Bill.
From Wikipedia:
"In 1986, Sessions was nominated for a federal judgeship by Reagan. The nomination was killed by the Senate Judiciary Committee, which refused by a 10-8 vote[3] to let the nomination come to the Senate floor for a vote."
