The chief judge for the Central District of California, the nation’s largest federal court jurisdiction, which includes L.A., has stepped down from that post, citing his racially insensitive comments regarding the court’s top clerk, a Black woman.
The chief judge for the Central District of California, the nation’s largest federal court jurisdiction, which includes Los Angeles and its neighboring counties, has stepped down from that post, citing his racially insensitive comments regarding the court’s top clerk, a Black woman.
“I have apologized to Ms. Gray, but I have concluded that a simple apology will not put this matter to rest. There will be division in the Court, unnecessary, negative and hurtful publicity, and a diversion from the Court’s essential mission of administering justice if I were to continue serving as the Chief District Judge,” Carney wrote in the email, which The Times reviewed. “I cannot allow the Court to become politicized and embroiled in controversy.
When Carney began discussing his adjusting to the role of chief district judge, his comments turned to Gray.
