The hearing of the Commission on Judicial Appointments to consider whether to confirm the governor’s nomination of Professor Goodwin Liu to the Supreme Court is just two days away. The California Channel will televise the hearing, which begins at 3:00 p.m.
[UPDATE: The Mercury News is reporting that Liu “appears to have [a] clear path to [the] California Supreme Court” because, although some negative letters were submitted to the Commission on Judicial Appointments, no one has signed up to speak against the nomination and because the JNE Commission gave Liu its highest rating — “exceptionally well qualified.”]
