Vince Chhabria To Be First Indian-American Judge In California
"While I had high expectations when I started here nine years ago, I never dreamed I would be lucky enough to work on so many exciting cases, for so many dynamic clients, with so many dedicated and high-calibre public lawyers."
Chhabria also thanked the members of the South Asian legal community saying: "The fact that I have been confirmed while travelling in India with my family makes this an especially proud moment for me."
He began his legal career by clerking for Judge Charles R. Breyer of the U.S. district court for the Northern District of California from 1998 to 1999.
The South Asian Bar Association of North America and the South Asian Bar Association of Northern California have applauded Chhabria's historic confirmation to the US district court.
The lone Indian-American member of the U.S. House of Representatives, Ami Bera,the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus chair, Judy Chu, and CAPAC chair emeritus, Mike Honda, also applauded Chhabria's confirmation.
"Vince Chhabria will make an excellent judge for the U.S. district court. I'm delighted that he was confirmed," Bera said.
"As the first South Asian to serve on the federal bench in California, he has also made California's Indian-American and South Asian community proud."
