The CAPAJA Judicial Applicant Mentoring Program was created to provide attorneys contemplating a career on the bench with guidance about how to reach that goal.  As a mentee, you can obtain valuable feedback and assistance from an experienced bench officer to help you hone the necessary skills for a successful judicial candidacy.  We invite you to submit an application to become a mentee. 

 

CAPAJA is committed to increasing the diversity of California’s bench officers.  We want to encourage attorneys who may never have considered applying to be a judicial officer and demystify the process for them.  We encourage attorneys of every background to submit an application to become a mentee.

 

To be eligible for the program, an attorney must:

 

• Be an active member of the California State Bar for the past five years

• Demonstrate a commitment to serving the community

• Have a genuine interest in applying for judicial office

 

Please submit your completed mentoring application and resume to Judge Tiffany Tai and Judge Adrian Roxas (both of the Los Angeles Superior Court) at ARoxas@lacourt.org and TTai@lacourt.org
