“I am proud today to cast my vote in the affirmative for Jane J. Boyle who has been nominated to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. She presently serves as United States Attorney for the Northern District of Texas. Judge Boyle has a long and distinguished career of public service and is well qualified to return to the bench having served as United States Magistrate Judge for the Northern District of Texas from 1990 to 2002. In addition, she served a previous term as United States Attorney, Northern District of Texas from 1987 to 1990, and was an Assistant District Attorney in the Dallas County District Attorney's Office from 1981 to 1987. Judge Boyle is imminently well qualified, as the ABA has rated her. More importantly, there is bipartisan consensus of those who know her and work with her. Moreover, she has garnered the respect of her colleagues and those who work for her. Most notably, she has gained the respect of the Dallas community, including folks from the entire political spectrum.”
