Discussed in a bulk nomination here Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kathleen Marie Sweet, which was closed as keep for essentially procedural reasons. O'Sullivan's notability was not specifically discussed. Neither the planned nor actual nomination by Presidents Obama and Trump were successful, and I see no other path to notability for this attorney.

Merge. In the previous mass-nomination, I noted that this subject "was nominated by one president and then declared, but not submitted, as a nominee by the next president, which is also a highly unusual and noteworthy circumstance". While I do think that this adds an extra layer of possible notability, I think the correct outcome here is to merge to Barack Obama judicial appointment controversies, with a note indicating that the subject was also proposed, but not formally nominated, by President Trump.

Merge and Redirect to Barack Obama judicial appointment controversies. Subject is not notable enough for a standalone article, but here we have a related article as a ATD with regards to her failed judicial nomination, and a sentence noting her failure to be renominated under Trump can be included there as well.
