Dean Johnson Comments on Potential Supreme Court Nominee for LA Times
Dean Kevin R. Johnson commented on the ideological orientation of Southwestern Law School Professor Christopher David Ruiz Cameron for an article in the Los Angeles Times examining various nominees that Governor Jerry Brown might choose to replace retiring California Supreme Court Justice Carlos Moreno. Cameron is mentioned in the article as one of several candidates under consideration.
Cameron, Dean Johnson said, "is not a far-out leftie, he is not a conservative. He is somewhere in the middle."
