The Los Angeles Times’ Maura Dolan reports about Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye’s meeting today with reporters. “Cantil-Sakauye, a former prosecutor, trial court judge and state appellate justice, suggested she may have suffered more serious gender discrimination than being called ‘honey’ and ‘sugar’ but declined to discuss it. ‘I’ve had a few “me-toos” in the past, but I’m not telling them, at least not on the record,’ said Cantil-Sakauye.”
The article also states that the Chief Justice “confirmed that a state appellate justice who resigned Oct. 31 [Sixth District Court of Appeal Presiding Justice Conrad Rushing] had been under investigation for improprieties.” (See last week’s San Jose Mercury News report about Rushing here.)
