Between 1990 and 2000, he sat on the Oregon Court of Appeals and served as presiding judge on one of the three panels that comprise that body. Prior to 3 – FALL CONFERENCE AGENDA 2016 DOCS/OJPA/ 8 15 2016 ascending to the bench, Justice De Muniz was in private practice for 13 years with the Salem, Oregon, law firm of Garrett, Seideman, Hemann, Robertson and De Muniz P.C., where he specialized in complex criminal and civil litigation, as well as appeals. From 1975 to 1977, he was a deputy public defender for the State of Oregon. In November 2011, Justice De Muniz was inducted into the National Center for State Courts' Warren E. Burger Society in recognition of his commitment to improving the administration of justice within the states.

He is on the Board of Trustees for the National Judicial College and recently completed a three-year term as a member of the Harvard Kennedy School's Executive Session for State Court Leaders in the 21st Century. In 2002, Justice De Muniz founded a rule-of-law partnership with judicial leaders in the Russian Far East, working with lawyers and judges in Russia to implement reforms within the Russian criminal justice system. Justice De Muniz speaks frequently to both national and international audiences on the importance of maintaining independent state judiciaries, improving state court administration and the need for adequate state court funding. He has served as the 2009 Robert H. Jackson Lecturer for the National Judicial College and, in 2010, addressed judicial leaders from 55 countries at the Asian Pacific Courts Conference on the ways and means of judicial branch strategic planning. Later that year, Justice De Muniz gave the 17th annual Justice William Brennan Lecture on State Courts and Social Justice at New York University Law School, discussing the need for reengineering state court operations.

Leanne Littrell DiLorenzo A Thesis in the Field of Government for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University November 2017 ! ! Copyright 2017 Leanne Littrell DiLorenzo ! Abstract This thesis investigates the plausibility of a new state-by-state strategy of amending state constitutions with the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) via direct ballot initiative helping build momentum to ultimately ratify the federal ERA. I have analyzed the federal ERA’s lack of success over the last ninety-four years to determine there is a dissonance between elected officials and popular opinion concerning the ERA. I have also concluded that one political party has used the ERA and restriction of women’s rights as a political tool to build their base. After my recent experience in initiating and chairing the Oregon ERA ballot initiative, I have determined that a state-by-state strategy could bring the needed awareness and momentum to help ratify the ERA in the U.S.

    The Oregonian Retired Portland assistant police chief Donna Henderson returns to City Hall for "new chapter'' in her career By Maxine Bernstein July 20, 2016 Donna Henderson, the former assistant police chief who retired last month after she was pushed aside as acting chief when Portland Mayor Charlie Hales named Capt. Mike Marshman to lead the force, is now working as the city's interim liquor licensing coordinator. Henderson, 57, started her new job in City Hall on Wednesday. She said she'd been talking to supervisors in the city's Office of Neighborhood Involvement for months about a possible position upon retirement. Her retirement came much sooner than she anticipated, though, when she was faced with a demotion to captain on June 27. She retired days later. "This is obviously a new chapter for me,'' Henderson told The Oregonian/OregonLive on Wednesday afternoon. "It's a little more administrative work than I'm used to. But I'm also looking forward to doing work out in the field.'' Amalia Alarcon de Morris, director of the city's Office of Neighborhood Involvement, called Henderson's appointment a "natural fit.'' "Donna's extensive experience in the community and enforcement is a natural fit to this program in the Livability Center,'' Alarcon de Morris said in a prepared statement. The liquor licensing coordinator for the city makes recommendations to the Oregon Liquor Control Commission about liquor establishments in the city, and works to address public safety or nuisance complaints related to the sale and service of alcohol in Portland. Henderson will be replacing Michael Boyer.

  • National Lawyers Guild Portland, Oregon Chapter
    NATIONAL LAWYERS GUILD PORTLAND, OREGON CHAPTER TH 3519 NE 15 ​ AVE #155 ​ PORTLAND, OREGON 97212 MEMORANDUM DATE: AUGUST 2, 2017 TO: PORTLAND CITY COUNCIL FROM: PORTLAND CHAPTER OF THE NATIONAL LAWYERS GUILD ENDORSED BY: AMA COALITION FOR JUSTICE AND POLICE REFORM OREGON JUSTICE RESOURCE CENTER NAACP PORTLAND BRANCH CC: PORTLAND CITY AUDITOR IPR DIRECTOR MULTNOMAH COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY OREGON DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE RE: RESPONSE TO THE CITY’S COMPELLED OFFICER TESTIMONY PROPOSAL I. INTRODUCTION The City of Portland is currently shaping its policy regarding compelled statements from officers involved in deadly force incidents. The public has a strong interest in obtaining prompt interviews of police officers who use deadly force. At the same time, there is a risk that compelling an officer to respond to questions about a deadly force incident in violation of the officer’s right against self-incrimination could jeopardize a criminal prosecution of the officer, if adequate safeguards are not in place. 1 Mayor Wheeler’s current proposal for handling this issue, as described below, does not appropriately balance these competing concerns. The proposal is founded on an inaccurate assessment of Oregon law. In addition, the proposal requires an inadequate policy to remain in operation while the City attempts to obtain a court opinion on a policy that does not go far enough to hold officers accountable.1 As this memo demonstrates, Oregon law clearly supports immediate implementation of a directive that compels officers who have used deadly force to provide a statement within 24 hours. The National Lawyers Guild (NLG) urges the City to take this course, starting with policies and procedures that ensure separate administrative and criminal investigations, with a plan to transfer the administrative investigation piece to the Independent Police Review (IPR) as soon as possible.
