  • Washington State Supreme Court Justice Mary Yu Leads the Way by Putting Others First by Sheila Cain Seattle Crosscut September 30, 2019
    Washington State Supreme Court Justice Mary Yu leads the way by putting others first by Sheila Cain Seattle Crosscut September 30, 2019 Growing up in a working-class family on the south side of Chicago, Mary Yu never expected to go to college. Yu’s Mexican mother, who spent much of her early life picking strawberries and asparagus, and her Chinese father, who worked in a factory, held modest wishes for their two children. They hoped their daughter would find success with a secretarial job. “My mom would always say she didn’t want our hands to look like hers,” Yu said. In high school, one of Yu's teachers asked if she had considered college. It was a question that would lead Yu to undergraduate and graduate degrees in theology, a 10- year career in social justice, a law degree from University of Notre Dame, a judgeship with King County Superior Court and a seat on the Washington state Supreme Court, where she serves today. As a lesbian woman of color, Yu found herself a trailblazer on many fronts. She’s the state’s first openly gay justice, the first Asian American justice and the first Latina justice. She even holds the honor of having officiated the first same-sex marriage in Washington State in 2012. “I see myself as a ‘first’ because of opportunity, timing and other leaders willing to give me a chance,” Yu said. “I don’t think I am a superhero, but I do want to make sure others can look at me and say, ‘I have a shot at the Washington state Supreme Court, too.’” Yu is one of six honorees being recognized at Crosscut’s Courage Awards breakfast in Seattle Oct.

  • 2014 State of the Judiciary
    2014 State of the Judiciary presented by Chief Justice Barbara A. Madsen on behalf of the courts of Washington State of the Judicary 2014 reetings Governor Inslee, members of the Washington State Legislature, judges, Gelected officials and residents of Washington, It has become a tradition for the Chief Justice to provide a written State of the Judiciary report at the start of the short session of the legislature and I do so now with appreciation for the opportunity to provide a brief look at how the courts of Washington fared in 2013, as well as the challenges coming in 2014. What follows is a series of articles and interviews that highlight some activities and accomplishments of the judicial branch this past year. I believe this new approach to reporting on the state of our courts will be more informative and will put a human face on the issues affecting the courts and the people we serve. The past year has been one of innovative steps forward in addressing intractable access-to-justice problems (see page 4), advancing the highly effective therapeutic courts model with new statewide resources and research (page 6), working to keep age-old public defense promises (page 8), advancing and leveraging technology to keep systems safe and help courts handle ever-growing caseloads (pages 10 & 11), reaching out to residents in old and new ways (page 15), building new frameworks for accessing court administrative records (page 17), honoring history with an eye on the future (page 18), looking at old organizational structures with a critical eye toward efficiency improvements (pages 20 & 21), performing vital work on public defense and civil legal aid systems (pages 22 and 24), and celebrating with families and children (page 26).

  • Washington Supreme Court Justice Mary Yu to Speak at UW Bothell Commencement
    Washington Supreme Court Justice Mary Yu to speak at UW Bothell commencement The commencement will take place on June 10. Monday, April 23, 2018 8:30am Bothell-Kenmore Reporter This year’s speaker for the University of Washington Bothell commencement is Washington Supreme Court Associate Justice Mary I. Yu. She will address graduates at the ceremony June 10 at Safeco Field in Seattle. “Justice Yu has a compelling personal story as well as a passion for social justice and public service,” said chancellor Wolf Yeigh in a press release. “This is something she has in common with many at the University of Washington Bothell.” Yu was appointed to the high court in 2014 by Gov. Jay Inslee who noted she distinguished herself throughout her career as someone of great intellect, dedication and compassion. Voters confirmed his choice, then Yu was re-elected in 2016 to a full six-year term. Yu was raised in Chicago by immigrant parents. Her mother came from Mexico and her father from China. She was the first in her family to graduate from college and received her law degree from Notre Dame. Yu served as deputy chief of staff for King County Prosecuting Attorney Norm Maleng and in 2000 was appointed to the superior court bench by Gov. Gary Locke. As a judge in 2012, Yu performed the first same-sex marriage in Washington on the day same-sex marriages became legal in the state. She is the first member of the LGBTQ community to serve on the state Supreme Court. A mentor and role model, Yu has served as co-chair of the Leadership Institute of the University of Washington Law School and Washington State Bar Association.

  • Editorial: Recommended for State Supreme Court, Position 8: Gonzalez
    https://www.yakimaherald.com/opinion/editorial-recommended-for-state-supreme-court-position-gonzalez/article_6d3d28a2-d3ef-11e8-8168-430c158b9238.html Editorial: Recommended for state Supreme Court, Position 8: Gonzalez By The Yakima Herald-Republic editorial board Oct 22, 2018 Updated Oct 22, 2018 Buy Now Even if he wasn’t widely viewed in the legal community as a fair and contemplative jurist, even if he hadn’t been anointed by 11 bar associations with the highest rating of “exceptionally well qualified,” even if hadn’t worked collaboratively with his fellow justices and extensively on community outreach, Steven Gonzalez would be our overwhelming choice to be reelected to the Washington State Supreme Court, Position 8. The reason: His challenger, Bellevue attorney Nathan Choi, lacks any judicial experience and seemingly a modicum of ethical grounding, as well as failing to display a nuanced grasp of state law during an hour-long meeting with the Herald-Republic editorial board. Choi, simply, is not a worthy candidate. When he unsuccessfully ran in 2017 for appellate judge, he was found to have failed to abide by state campaign disclosure rules. He also was admonished by the King County Bar Association for falsely describing himself as a judge in campaign ads. He was sued by the state Attorney General for not following Public Disclosure Commission laws for reporting campaign expenses and contributions. In May, after Choi failed to respond to the AG’s office, a Thurston County judge granted an order of default against him. Any of those actions alone would raise serious doubts about a candidate’s fitness for office.

  • Supreme Court Symposium Reentry
    2015 Minority and Justice Commission Annual Report Artwork The Minority and Justice Commission selects and reproduces posters of works by northwest artists that reflect dimensions of the racial and ethnic diversity of the people and communities served by Wash- ington State courts. This year's selection, "Urban Despair," showcases the work of Seattle graphic artist, Ashby Reed. It is a gripping reflection of the times in which we live when there is heightened awareness and acknowledgement of the racial inequi- ty that exists in America. In selecting this year's artwork, the Commission recognizes the influence of bias, both implicit and overt, on perceptions and identity. For some, the image may re-enforce negative biases around youth and youth of color. For others, the image may be a symbol of the growing movement for racial equity in response to harsh and tragic outcomes for youth of color.
