Is still sonia sotomayor in the new period of Obama?
I am not sure I understand your question. President Obama appointed her to the Supreme Court in 2009. She was the first Latina judge on the court. She is still on the Supreme Court. It is very unusual for young justices to resign or retire from the court, so since she is still young and healthy, we may assume she will remain on the court during Mr. Obama's second term and even after he has left office.
Should i capitalize judge?
That depends on whether you're using the words as regular or proper nouns. If you're referring to supreme court justices in general, without reference to a specific person or court, then there is no need to capitalize. If you're referring to a specific court, such as the Supreme Court of the United States, or the US Supreme Court, as it's known colloquially, you need to capitalize. The same rules apply to justices. If you're referring to US Supreme Court justices in general, apply capitalization only to the part of the sentence that includes proper (specifically identifying) nouns. If you're referring to a particular justice, as in, "President Obama nominated Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor in 2009," "justice" needs to be capitalized because you are using it as that particular person's title.
