William Gailey
Confirmed by California State Senate
William "Bill" Gailey was confirmed by the
California State Senate to his reappointment as a Member of the
State Bar Board of Governors on September 7, 2009. The confirmation
was by a unanimous vote of 39-0. Mr Gailey's second consecutive term
on the Board of Governors expires on September 1, 2011.
The
State Bar is governed by a 23-member Board of Governors. Fifteen are
lawyers elected by members of the State Bar. A 16th lawyer is
elected by the California Young Lawyers Association (CYLA) Board of
Directors.
Since 1977, the State Bar has operated with
increased involvement by the public. Beginning that year, six
"public" or non-lawyer members were appointed to the Board of
Governors - four by California's governor, one by the state Senate
Committee on Rules and one by the Speaker of the Assembly. The 23rd
member of the Board of Governors is the State Bar president, who is
elected by the other board members to serve a fourth year as the
bar's chief officer.
