My Take
Amul Roger Thapar commands real respect from me. Born in Detroit and educated at the University of California, Berkeley, he now serves as a circuit judge on the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, after years as a federal district judge and U.S. attorney. What strikes me is the weight of that path: as a jurist of Indian heritage rising to the heights of American law, every word he writes can shape someone's fate. That is a sobering responsibility, and his career reflects a grounded, methodical seriousness. Whatever one thinks of any single ruling, the discipline behind such a life is undeniable.
