On the recordSeptember 26, 1996
Judge Rodibaugh has served the citizens of South Bend, IN, for almost 50 years. He is a native son, a World War II veteran, and a skilled jurist. Under his stewardship the bankruptcy courts for the northern district of Indiana have grown from one small facility into four courts in South Bend, Fort Wayne, Gary, and Lafayette. So I want to commend the gentleman from Indiana for his support of the legislation. I would also like to commend our chairman of this subcommittee for the fine job he has done and for the fairness he and his staff displayed throughout this term. I do not know if we will have any more business pending before it, but there are a couple more naming bills I wish we would do.
