 COMMENDING CHIEF JUDGE JOHN W. BISSELL, U.S. DISTRICT COURT, DISTRICT 
                             OF NEW JERSEY

 Mr. CORZINE. Mr. President, I express my sincere appreciation 
to Chief Judge John W. Bissell for his more than 20 years of 
outstanding service as a Federal District Court Judge in New Jersey. He 
is a truly distinguished jurist who represents the best of the New 
Jersey legal community. Judge Bissell has a depth of experience and a 
knowledge of both civil and criminal law that few can rival. He also 
has a keen legal mind and a compassionate understanding of people. 
Judge Bissell approaches each and every case before him with 
thoughtfulness and care. Indeed, he has excelled because of his deep 
appreciation that every case, no matter how small, matters greatly to 
all those who appear before him. And I believe that it is this 
understanding that has made Judge Bissell an outstanding Federal 
District Court Judge.
  On behalf of the people of New Jersey, I express my sincere gratitude 
to Judge Bissell for his many years of distinguished service.
