What is the definition of senatorial courtesy?

Senatorial Privelege ( also called senatorial courtesy) is a custom in the US Senate whereby the Senate will not vote to confirm a Presidential appointee until the Senators from the state the appointee resides in consent to the Senate voting on it. This is a way for Senators to keep person they might not like from being confirmed in the appointment. Or as a way of getting some concession from the President in return for allowing the Senate to vote on confirmation. There is no law or provision in the Constitution for this. It exists as a custom only. All Senators go along with it no matter how it hurts either the office that is waiting for the appointee to take over or how it hurts the appointee. They go along with it because they know that sometime they might want to hold up someone's confirmation and would expect the rest of the Senate to go along with the delay. A Senator does not have to give any reason for holding up a vote for confirmation through senatorial privelege and there is no way to force the Senate to take a vote other than by way of public criticism to embarass the Senator into releasing the vote.
