    Presiding Justice Laurence D. Kay to Retire From First District Court of Appeal Next Month

    Presiding Justice Laurence D. Kay of the First District Court of Appeal [in San Francisco] will retire Aug. 31, the MetNews has learned.

    The retirement of Kay, 68, will cap a 24-year judicial career, which began with a San Francisco Municipal Court appointment by then-Gov. Jerry Brown in August 1981. Brown elevated Kay to the San Francisco Superior Court just prior to leaving office in January 1983.

    Then-Gov. Gray Davis appointed Kay to the Court of Appeal in 2001. He was elevated to presiding justice the following year, succeeding Daniel Hanlon.
