CRBA member Judge Emily Vasquez has been selected by the Sacramento County Bar Association Board of Directors as the SCBA Judge of the Year! Many of you may know Judge Vasquez not only through her position as a Sacramento County Superior Court Judge, but also through her extensive involvement with many different organizations here in the Sacramento area. As such, those of you who know her also are aware that she is truly an inspirational figure for not only our members but so many others she has assisted, mentored and collaborated with throughout the years. Our congratulations go out to her for this well-deserved award! Please also mark your calendars as the award ceremony will be held on September 19, 2019 at the Sheraton Grand Hotel at the SCBA’s annual Bench Bar Reception.
On March 16, 2018, CRBA members presented at Cesar Chavez Youth Leadership Conference at UC Davis. The presentation, "You can be a Lawyer? Se se Puede" was given by CRBA President Brian Lopez, Secretary Cecilia Guevara Zamora, Board Member George Acero and CRBA members Judge Sonia Cortes and Matthew Martinez. Thank you to our panelists.
