Chief Justice of California Tani Cantil-Sakauye is stepping down in January after serving a 12-year term on the state’s high court. Nominated by former republican governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, she was the first non-white person and the second woman to lead the court. She joins us to reflect on her time on the bench, the future of the California judiciary and her newly announced next role as president and CEO of the Public Policy Institute of California.

Guests:

Tani Cantil-Sakauye, Chief Justice of California
