The Brooklyn Eagle is reporting that Community Board 6's Vice Chairman, Ray Lohler, is being appointed by President Obama to be a judge, which, as you can imagine, is a "Godfather" offer.
"In February, U.S. Sen. Charles E. Schumer announced that he was recommending Lohier to fill the vacancy, which was created when Hon. Sonia Sotomayor left to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court.
Lohier, a federal prosecutor and attorney, serves as the first vice-chairman of Brooklyn’s Community Board 6, which represents Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Columbia Street District, Gowanus, Park Slope and Red Hook.
On Wednesday, Obama made Lohier’s nomination official, as well as nominating Ohio federal Judge Kate O’Malley to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit."
