Harry Pregerson
Appearance
Harry Pregerson (born October 13, 1923) serves as a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. He was appointed in 1979 by President Jimmy Carter.
In 2002, the California Legislature officially named the giant interchange between Interstate 110 (California) and Interstate 105 (California) the "Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange" in honor of the fact that Pregerson is the longest serving judge in the history of the Ninth Circuit. Furthermore, as a district judge, he supervised the settlement of the federal lawsuit against the Century Freeway, which enabled the interchange to be built. Judge Pregerson's name is now on signs at the interchange.
