In praise of Judge Richard Leon

U.S. District Court Judge Richard Leon,
Judge Richard Leon

A reader responds to my post on the latest developments in Morley v. CIA with these observations::

“Jeff, for what it’s worth, I have appeared before Judge Leon several times. I have found him to be fair, honest and willing to step outside the box in needed. I would not prefer any other judge on that court, except perhaps Ricky Roberts.”

The U.S. Court of Appeals hear oral arguments on Leon’s latest ruling in Morley v. CIA on November 6.
