SACRAMENTO — A nationwide study of financial disclosure practices for judges dinged California Supreme Court Justice Kathryn Werdegar for participating last year in a case involving Wells Fargo when she owned stock in the banking giant valued at more than $100,000.
Werdegar acknowledged that she should have recused herself from Krasch v. Wells Fargo Bank N.A. after she was confronted by a reporter with the Center for Public Integrity. The nonprofit news organization uncovered Werdegar’s conflict in a review of the financial disclosures practices for high court justices in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
