SACRAMENTO -- Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger named San Francisco appellate judge Carol Corrigan to the California Supreme Court on Friday, deciding on a moderate Republican and former prosecutor to fill the post of conservative jurist Janice Rogers Brown.
"This is the best of the best that we have in the state," Schwarzenegger said during a Capitol news conference called to introduce her.
Corrigan, 57, a Republican sitting on the 1st District Court of Appeal in San Francisco, succeeds Brown, who resigned in June after the U.S. Senate confirmed her to the federal appeals court in Washington, D.C.
