  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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. The Commission hopes this piece will stimulate thoughtful reflection, inquiry, and public dialogue about race, Artist Ashby Reed justice, and the role of the courts. “Urban Despair” “In 2012 I was doing a series of pieces that portrayed inner-city landscapes that I remembered from my youth growing up in the south Bronx. When I first painted “Urban Despair” it was to interpret an idea I had about our youth across the coun- try in those inner cities. The loud and colorful clothing was in contrast to the drab environment many African American youth are mired in today. The building behind the young man in the painting is my old tenement building I lived in and done as I remembered.

  • The Seattle Times Editorial Board
    Voters have no choice but to re-elect Justices Owens, Gonzalez and McCloud. By The Seattle Times editorial board Washington voters have no choice but to re-elect the three state Supreme Court justices running for re-election this year. Fortunately the incumbents, Susan Owens, Sheryl McCloud and Steve Gonzalez, are all eminently qualified. While there may be various points of disagreement with each, they are members of a strong, feisty and productive panel that’s also active in efforts to improve the judicial system statewide, address bias and broaden participation. Generations of Washingtonians should benefit from the current justices’ firm hand in education reform, which forced Gov. Jay Inslee and legislators to finally fulfill their constitutional obligation to amply fund public schools via the McCleary case.

Choi is not a reasonable option. He failed to abide by state campaign disclosure rules during a 2017 run for appellate judge and appears to be doing so again this year. He was also admonished by the King County Bar Association for falsely describing himself as a judge in campaign ads last fall.
