Join Us for A Conversation with Chief Justice Patricia Guerrero!
Come enjoy ABTL's first MCLE networking dinner program of 2023. We look forward to a conversation between Chief Justice Patricia Guerrero and moderator, Justice Martin N. Buchanan, the newest Court of Appeal Justice in San Diego.
Chief Justice Guerrero is the 29th Chief Justice of California. She was sworn into office on January 2, 2023, making history as the first Latina to serve as California’s Chief Justice. She was nominated to office by Governor Gavin Newsom in August 2022, unanimously confirmed by the Commission on Judicial Appointments the same month, and overwhelmingly approved by voters in the November 2022 general election. The California State Bar Judicial Nominees Evaluation Commission rated Chief Justice Guerrero as exceptionally well qualified for the position prior to her public confirmation hearing.
