Upon his confirmation, Castillo became the first Latino federal judge in the state of Illinois.[3] He also served as a Commissioner of the United States Sentencing Commission from 1999 to 2010.[6][4] Castillo became the Northern District's chief judge on July 1, 2013.[7][4] PersonalCastillo and his wife, Sylvia Mojica-Castillo, were married in 1978.
