One of California’s eight newest judges is the first openly transgender person to be appointed to the bench in the Golden State, officials said.
Andi Mudryk, 58, will serve as a judge in Sacramento County Superior Court, filling the vacancy created by the retirement of Judge Benjamin Davidian, Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said Friday in announcing a batch of judicial appointments and nominations.
“I’m grateful to Gov. Newsom for creating a vision of California for all.”
