Gov. Bob Ferguson makes his pick for WA Supreme Court seat
Colleen Melody said she’s done interviews for two jobs in the past 12 years. Bob Ferguson conducted both.
About a decade ago, Ferguson, then Washington’s attorney general, chose her to lead his office’s new civil rights unit devoted to investigating and enforcing anti-discrimination laws.
On Monday, Ferguson, now governor, named Melody as Washington’s newest state Supreme Court justice.
Melody, 43, will succeed Justice Mary Yu, who announced her retirement in September.
