Abrain tumor has slowly robbed mr. schneider of his ability to recognize objects by touch. the tumor is probably centered in his ) lobe.

I believe the answer is  parietal lobe
parietal lobe had to function to integrate both sensory information that derived from touch and our visual system.
A tumor that pressed in parietal lobe will destroy this integration and caused the person to unable to recognize objects that they see or touch.

Mr. Schneider here could be diagnosed with Astereognosis, or the inability to recognize by touch. this is cause by a lesion or damage to the Pareital lobe of the patient, or the dorsal column. This could affect only one of the hands, or both hands.

The ceremonial column.

The answer is an appellate court.
