California Supreme Court Justice Discusses Diversity Project With SEC Staff

 

While the number of Asian American lawyers has nearly tripled in the last 20 years, they continue to be underrepresented in federal and state clerkships and judgeships. Furthermore, when data in the first phase of the project was finalized in 2016, only four out of the 2,437 elected prosecutors in the United States were Asian American and just three of the 94 U.S. Attorneys were of Asian descent.

 

Two graphics display. First one shows that in 2014 data, Asian Americans made up approximately 2% of judges serving on state appellate court or general jurisdiction trial court. Second one shows that in 2016 data, only 37 Asian Americans have ever served as Article III judges.https://www.sec.gov/page/california-supreme-court-justice-discusses-diversity-project-sec-staff?
