Nonprofit Youth Organizations That Discriminate
Supreme Court Eliminates Ethics Exception that Permitted Judges to Belong to Nonprofit Youth Organizations That Discriminate
SAN FRANCISCO—The Supreme Court of California unanimously voted to eliminate an exception in Canon 2C of the California Code of Judicial Ethics that permitted judges to belong to nonprofit youth organizations that practice invidious discrimination.
The Supreme Court adopted the recommendation of its Advisory Committee on the Code of Judicial Ethics to eliminate an exception to an ethics rule that prohibits judges from holding membership in any organization that practices invidious discrimination on the basis of race, sex, gender, religion, national origin, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. The prior rule permitted an exception for nonprofit youth organizations.
