October 14 - 15, 2016
During the CKA Gala & Awards Dinner on Friday, October 14, we will honor several exemplary individuals who represent the best of our community's contributions to society. This year's Public Servant Award honoree is US District Judge for the Northern District of California Lucy Koh.
Judge Koh has been nominated to serve on the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Described by President Barack Obama as "a first-rate jurist with unflagging integrity and evenhandedness," Judge Koh truly exemplifies the best of Korean Americans in public service.
Judge Koh is the nation's second-ever Korean American federal judge and would only be the second at the appellate court level if confirmed by the Senate. The first Korean American federal judge, Herbert Choy, also the first Asian American, was appointed to the federal court of appeals by President Nixon in 1971.
To put Judge Koh into further perspective, there are only 26 active Asian American federal court judges out of 871 who active, about three percent.
Join us on October 14 as we celebrate Judge Koh's historic achievements and service to our nation.

Facebook can legally block content: US Court
http://odishasamaya.com/news/technology/facebook-can-legally-block-content-us-court/64691
Washington: In a major victory for Facebook, a US court has ruled that it can block content without any explanation after a Sikh group filed a lawsuit challenging the blocking of its social media page.
The ruling by the US Court in San Francisco came in response to the lawsuit filed against the Silicon Valley- headquartered company by Sikh for Justice, which alleged that its Facebook page, which advocated Sikh separatism, was blocked by the social media giant.
US District Judge Lucy Koh in her November 13 ruling stated that the Sikh group’s claims of religious discrimination are precluded under the
Communications Decency Act, which protects providers of “interactive computer services” by barring courts from treating service providers like Facebook as the publishers or speakers of speech created by others.
“We will appeal and challenge the decision of Judge Koh which is just an extension of Facebook action of blocking SFJ’s page at the behest of the Indian government,” alleged attorney Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, legal adviser to SFJ.
“Facebook is an American Corporation and owes allegiance to US Constitution which promotes and protects free speech content and not accede to threats of foreign governments but Judge Koh’s ruling failed to cover any of the allegations of SFJ,” he said.
“If Facebook is a public company making billions of dollars in public money and they don’t want to give any explanation for why they blocked the content of a human rights group, then what is the difference between a democracy and a dictatorship?” he asked.
In a statement, Pannun said that Judge Koh should have at least ordered that the social media giant give SFJ an explanation as to who ordered the take down.
“Facebook owes an explanation to its users after or before blocking and removing the content which is guaranteed under freedom of speech,” he said.
