Gov. Jerry Brown has turned to his own staff for his next, and final, California Supreme Court pick, choosing his senior advisor for judicial appointments and legal policy, Joshua “Josh” Groban to be the next associate justice on the high court.
Groban, 45, has served Brown since 2010 when he was chief legal advisor to the would-be governor's campaign. Since joining the Brown administration Groban has taken a lead role in recruiting and vetting hundreds of trial court and appellate applicants. If confirmed as expected, Groban will join three other Brown appointees—Associate Justices Goodwin Liu, Mariano-Florentino Cuellar and Leondra Kruger—he helped bring to the bench.
