Judge Marilyn Patel
The San Jose Mercury News reports that Judge Patel has been promoted to
Chief Judge of the Northern District of California. It lists some of her
decisions as:
* The first judge to declare illegal the WW2 internment of Japanese-Americans
* The gas chamber is a cruel and unusual punishment.
Given the way these high profile decisions have been upheld on appeal, we
can hope for the Burnstein case to be upheld as well.
