Her honor : my life on the bench ... what works, what's broken, and how to change it / LaDoris Hazzard Cordell. by Cordell, Ladoris H., author. New York : Celadon Books, 2021. Subjects Cordell, Ladoris H.   African American women judges -- California -- Biography.   Judges -- California -- Biography.   Criminal justice, Administration of -- United States. ISBN:  9781250269607 (hardcover) : 1250269601 (hardcover) Description:  xxvi, 309 pages ; 25 cm Edition:  First Edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  Judge Cordell, the first African American woman to sit on the Superior Court of Northern California, knows firsthand how prejudice has permeated our legal system. And yet, she believes in the system. From ending school segregation to legalizing same-sex marriage, its progress relies on legal professionals and jurors who strive to make the imperfect system as fair as possible. Cordell takes you into her chambers where she haggles with prosecutors and defense attorneys and into the courtroom during jury selection and sentencing hearings. She uses real cases to highlight how judges make difficult decisions, all the while facing outside pressures from the media, law enforcement, lobbyists, and the friends and families of the people involved.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 347.794 Cordell Co Checked In Add Copy to MyList Keaau P/S Library Adult Biography B 347.794 Cordell Co Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 347.794 Cordell Co Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 347.794 Co Checked In Add Copy to MyList
