Investiture Ceremony
An investiture ceremony took place for U.S. District Court Judge Robert J. White (left), Eastern District of Michigan, on Friday, January 24, at the Theodore Levin U.S. Courthouse in Detroit. Among those welcoming White to the bench were U.S. District Court Judge Shalina Kumar (right), Eastern District of Michigan. White fills the vacancy that arose when U.S. District Court Judge Paul D. Borman assumed senior status in August 2023. Prior to his appointment to the federal bench, White was an assistant U.S. attorney in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Michigan starting in 2018. Previously, he served as an assistant U.S. attorney in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Texas from 2014 to 2018. Before that, he worked as an associate attorney at Ralph E. Meczyk and Associates from 2010 to 2014. White received his law degree from Chicago-Kent College of Law at the Illinois Institute of Technology in 2010 and his B.A. from the University of Michigan in 2007.
