ONE OF AMERICA’S BEST JUDGES:  Judge Ho Tells It Like It Is.

The only downside of “the Honorable James Ho” is that his appointment to the bench makes me feel elderly.  I knew him before he went to law school (but a good 15 years after I had graduated).  I remember I urged him to attend my alma mater–the University of Chicago Law School.  But I don’t think I can even claim partial credit for having influenced his decision; if I am remembering correctly, he was already leaning heavily toward Chicago.  Now he’s a Fifth Circuit judge–one of quite a few great judicial appointments by Donald Trump.
