California: Contra Costa Superior Court Judges facing recall effort

Judges Jill Fannin, Lois Haight and Rebecca Hardie are also facing a recall efforts, with petitioners claiming that they have enough against Haight and are close to getting enough signatures to get the recall against Hardie on the ballot. Petitioners have until March 12 to submit the signatures. The issue is problems with the family court -- seemingly about adoption and foster care. Not clear how many signatures are needed.

This would be the second recall of a judge since 1932 -- the last one taking place last year in Santa Clara County against Judge Aaron Persky.
