Show Notes

A legal battle is unfolding in the Orange County Superior Court judge race, as challenger Charles Pell, a retired federal prosecutor, sues to block incumbent Judge Amy Sheth Sagel from using her full name on the ballot. Pell argues voters know her by her full name from her years on the bench. Both candidates are longtime prosecutors, but Sagel hints the challenge may be biased due to her Indian heritage. The case hinges on whether the name switch misleads voters, with a decision expected by Monday, as printing deadlines loom.
