Law school alumni ta e stand on state Supreme Court confirmations ALCAi;j?~ - In a rare action, the Univer,ity of San Diego Law School Alumni Association has adopted a resolution to ounter the attacks on the California Supreme Court Jusuces facing a statewide contim1a11on vote later this-year The alumni as50ciation urges voters to make their decision baised on "a reasoned evaluation directed towards the preserva11on of perhaps the most fundamental mechanism in existence that $CJV~ 10 guarantee the past and the future freedom that we in America enjoy: a strong and independent JUdiuary. ' THE RESOLUTION states that voters should rwt decide the fate of the six justices up for re election by "responding to media appeals which may not fauiy charnctertze the qualificatlon of any of th ex1,tmg Suprem,:- Court Justices."

" "The position of ju tice demands digntty, fairnes,; and restraint, wh1< h does not reasonably permit sitting Suprem<" Court Justices to respond to (the) ~~av1ly finant"ed and organized partisan attack. STEVEN DENTON, an alumni associauon past pre ident and author of the rcsoultion, said the justites "have their hands tied It is fundamentally unfair for {Chi f Justice) Rose Bird lo respond to politically moti, attd accusations. "The forces mustered against Chief Jusuce Bird are finamial in nature, probabl>· tl1c result of big business factmns that don '1 like her d,·ds1ons m 1:1vd cases.
