Summary

Summary

The Executive and Planning Committee recommends the approval of an unpaid sabbatical leave for Judge Ronald Owen Kaye, Superior Court of Los Angeles County, for the period of August 24, 2026, through January 8, 2027. During this sabbatical leave, Judge Kaye will participate as a visiting scholar at the Universidad de Granada and Universidad de Málaga through their respective law schools, meeting with and presenting lectures to students and faculty on multiple areas of U.S. and California civil and criminal law. Judge Kaye believes that this proposed sabbatical will enable him to return with a comparative analysis in this area, enriching the work of the mental health court while fostering outreach and relationship building for the California court system.
