Federal judicial service

On June 19, 1984, Legge was nominated by President Ronald Reagan to a seat on the United States District Court for the Northern District of California vacated by Judge Robert Howard Schnacke. Legge was confirmed by the United States Senate on September 17, 1984, and received his commission on September 18, 1984. Legge served in that capacity until his retirement, on June 30, 2001.[1]

gollark: The UK doesn't seem to be doing hugely well with this whole thing to be honest.
