SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- The first Latina to serve on the California Supreme Court was sworn in Monday as officials praised the historic elevation of appellate judge Patricia Guerrero to the state's highest court.
"It made history for us and the future of California," said Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye. She added that"it is such a substantive and well-deserved appointment." Moreover, Guerrero's ascension restored the four-female majority on the seven member court, Cantil-Sakauy noted.
