Finding Aid of the Arthur Alarcón 7029 1 papers 7029 Language of Material: English Contributing Institution: USC Libraries Special Collections Title: Arthur L. Alarcón papers creator: Alarcón , Arthur L. Identifier/Call Number: 7029 Physical Description: 103 Linear Feet150 boxes Date (inclusive): 1940-2014 Abstract: Arthur L Alarcón was a United States Circuit Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, to which he was appointed in 1979 by President Jimmy Carter. He assumed senior status in 1992 and served until his death in 2015. Earlier in his career, he had served as Deputy District Attorney for Los Angeles County, legal advisor/ Clemency and Extradition Secretary to Governor Edmund G. "Pat" Brown (followed by his role as Executive Assistant), Superior Court judge for the County of Los Angeles, and Associate Justice for the California Court of Appeals, Los Angeles. The records in this collection span nearly 75 years of Alarcón 's life, including a small amount of his childhood and service in the Army before he began his long and diverse career as a lawyer and judge. This collection contains files for hundreds of legal cases in which he served in different capacities--some relatively minor cases and some very high-profile cases. A large group of Administrative Files is comprised of a mix of subject files, speeches and reports, event and activity ephemera, interviews, and other papers that are not official court documents. Biographical Note Arthur L Alarcón was a United States Circuit Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, to which he was appointed in 1979 by President Jimmy Carter. He had a long and prominent career in law which began immediately following law school graduation at the University of Southern California. Born in 1925 in Los Angeles as the son of a baker from Mexico, Alarcón attended local schools and served in the U.S. Army during World War II. He was the recipient of four Battle Stars and the Combat Infantry Badge, the Bronze Star, and a Purple Heart. Upon returning to Los Angeles, he attended UCLA for two years on the G.I. Bill, and then transferred to USC where he received his B.A. degree in political science and then law degree in 1951 from USC's School of Law. Following graduation, Judge Alarcón was hired by the District Attorney's Office for Los Angeles and remained in that position until 1961 when Governor Edmund G. "Pat" Brown appointed him legal advisor and Clemency and Extraditions secretary, in addition to serving on the Governor's Special Commission on Narcotics (aka "Dope Commission"). From 1963 to 1964 Alarcón served as the executive assistant responsible for investigations to assist the governor in deciding whether to commute death sentences received by state prisoners. For a brief time, he served as chair of the California Adult Authority, the parole board for men, a position he held until he was named to the Superior Court of California for the County of Los Angeles--a position he held until 1978. From 1978 to 1979, Alarcón--appointed by Governor Jerry Brown, Jr.--served as an associate justice of the California Court of Appeal for the Second Appellate District in Los Angeles. It was in 1979 that the Republican Alarcón was nominated by then President Jimmy Carter for a seat on the Ninth Circuit bench, becoming the first Latino to sit on the court. He served as an active judge until taking senior status in 1992. The longtime judge presided over many noteworthy cases, including that of Sirhan Sirhan, convicted of assassinating Robert F. Kennedy. Because he was so actively involved in a number of life or death decisions during his career, Alarcón conducted extensive research on the efficacy of capital punishment and, in his later years, he pushed for an overhaul of the state's capital punishment system, arguing that the average lag time between conviction and execution was twice the national average. An article that Alarcón co-authored, "Executing the Will of the Voters?: A Roadmap to Mend or End the California Legislature's Multi-Billion Dollar Death Penalty Debacle" appeared in a 2011 issue of the Loyola Law Review. A few years prior, the University of Southern California Law Review printed his article titled "Remedies for California's Death Row Deadlock." Known as an expert in criminal law, Alarcón authored many publications and held teaching assignments as adjunct professor of law at Loyola Law School, University of Southern California, and Southwestern School of Law (where he received an honorary Doctorate in Law Degree in 2007). He was a lecturer on criminal procedure for the California College of Trial Judges, and lecturer on evidence in criminal matters for the National College of Trial Judges. Judge Alarcón filled in on other federal courts across the country and took pride in participating in international judicial exchange programs, working with judges in Chile and Argentina. Alarcón's civic involvements included service on the boards of directors of such Hispanic groups as Las Familias del Pueblo, Jardin de la Infancia, the Mexican-American Scholarship Foundation Assisting Careers in Law, and the Council of Mexican-American Affairs. He also served on the boards of the Los Angeles Boys and Girls Club, Legal Aid Foundation, Performing Arts Council for the Los Angeles Music Center, and the Junior League of Los Angeles. He was instrumental in

Judge Alarcón was active in promoting the advancement of women and Latinos in the legal field. In 2000, the Judge was head of a committee tasked with having important buildings named after lawyers of modern importance, and he was instrumental in having the criminal courthouse in downtown Los Angeles named after the first woman admitted to the California Bar, Clara Shortridge Foltz. Foltz, a reformer and suffragist had litigated a series of cases that ultimately recognized women's right to attend law school and sit for the California Bar. Alarcón received many awards during the course of his career including the 2014 Judge of the Year Award from the Los Angeles County Bar Association, and the Precursor Para Justicia/Pioneer for Justice Award from the Mexican American Bar Foundation in 2010. In 2011, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Anthony M. Kennedy gave the keynote address at the dedication of the Alarcón Advocacy Center at Loyola Law School in Los Angeles. Alarcón passed away on January 28, 2015 at his home in Los Angeles after having been diagnosed with cancer the previous September. He had celebrated his 50th year as a judge in 2014; most of that half-century of judicial service was as a federal appellate judge. He had maintained a full caseload and continued to work for a time even after his diagnosis, never letting on to colleagues about his illness. Scope and Contents This collection of Judge Alarcón's papers consists chiefly of case files and bench books spanning over forty years of his career in various government and judicial positions. Accompanying the official court records are newspaper clippings and Alarcón's research notes on specific cases such as the Robert Alton Harris case and the L. Ewing Scott case-- two high-profile murder cases. The scrapbooks in the collection also contain some of Alarcón's childhood ephemera as well as career memorabilia and materials related to his service during World War II. Arrangement The collection is organized into thirteen series, closely based on its original organization at the time of its donation to USC. Within each series, the files are arranged in their original order which varies from series to series. For example, most of the case files are arranged alphabetically according to the last name of the defendant; however the En Banc case files (1980-1992) are arranged in order of case number, or roughly chronologically. The rather large and varied Administrative Files series was kept in the original donation order, as this group of boxes was clearly labeled "Admin. Files--1 of 16, 2 of 16, etc." Conditions Governing Access Judge Alarcón's case files and case-related materials have a five-year blanket restriction. They will be available June 25, 2020. The non-case files are open for access. Conditions Governing Use All requests for permission to publish or quote from manuscripts must be submitted in writing to the Manuscripts Librarian. Permission for publication is given on behalf of Special Collections as the owner of the physical items and is not intended to include or imply permission of the copyright holder, which must also be obtained.

Robert Alton Harris Case 1980-1993 Historical Background Arguably Arthur Alarcón's most high-profile case as a court of appeals judge was that of Robert Alton Harris (January 15, 1953-April 21, 1992). Harris was an American criminal and murderer who was executed in in 1992 in connection with the of two teenage boys in . His execution was the first in the state of California since 1967. Arthur Alarcón served as a 9th Circuit Court of Appeals panel judge to consider Harris's habeas petitions.

Nordyke v King Case 2008-2011 Historical Background In Nordyke v King, a lower court ruling was upheld as constitutional in Alameda County that banned guns on County property because it came under the doctrine that allows governments to restrict possession in "sensitive" places. The case was later taken en banc. At oral argument, the County stated that gun shows were not banned, and could be held with unloaded firearms if they were secured with cables. On June 1, 2012, the full appeals court ruled that the county law was constitutional, since it allowed gun shows to take place on the fairgrounds, with tight restrictions.

Ahmed Ressam Case Historical Background Ahmed Ressam is an Algerian al-Quaeda member who lived for a time in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Later known as the Millenium Bomber, he was convicted in 2001 of planning to bomb the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on New Year's Eve 1999, as part of the foiled 2000 millenium attack plots. In 2005 he was sentenced to 22 years in prison, after cooperating with the government in testifying about al-Quaeda and associated terrorist networks. In 2007, a divided panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in Seattle reversed Ressame's conviction on one of the charges, due to the majority's reading of the applicable law. The U.S. Supreme Court overturned the Ninth Circuit in an 8-1 decision on May 19, 2008, restoring the original convictions and sentence. On February 2, 2010, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Ressam's 22-year sentence was too lenient, and the appellate court ordered that Ressam be re-sentenced by a different district court judge from the one who had handed down the original sentence. In October 2012, Ressam was re-sentenced to 37 years imprisonment and his serving his sentence at the maximum security prison in Colorado, ADX Florence.

L. Ewing Scott Case 1956-2012 Background Information One of Judge Arthur Alarcón's most high profile cases occurred in 1959 when Alarcón was a deputy district attorney in California's first "no dead body" murder case. The conviction of L. Ewing Scott for the murder of his wife was based solely on circumstantial evidence and Scott was given a life sentence. He was released from prison in 1978 and later admitted to having committed the murder. He died in 1987 at age 91, more than 30 years after his wife first "went missing."

Arthur Alarcón's Research Project on Tom Mooney Scope and Contents note Thomas "Tom" Mooney was an American political activist and labor leader, who was convicted with Warren K. Billings of the San Francisco Preparedness Day Bombing of 1916. Believed by many to have been wrongly convicted of a crime he did not commit, Mooney served 22 years in prison before being pardoned and released in 1939. He died in 1942 at 59 years old. The research files in this series all center upon the trial of Tom Mooney and his associates--it appears that Alarcón may have planned on writing a book on the case. Most of the materials are photocopied articles from newspapers, journals, and from special collections in university libraries. There are a few files of handwritten and typed notes, and some email correspondence between Alarcón and various persons and institutions. Some of Alarcón's research materials involve other cases in which he was comparing particular aspects to that of Mooney's. Four document boxes comprise the series. Arrangement Note All of the files in this series have been kept in the order in which they had been arranged in the original boxes received by USC from Rollins Emerson, the archivist for the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in San Francisco.
