The JNE Investigation Task Force will focus its investigation on how a “not qualified” rating of former state Sen. Charles S. “Chuck” Poochigian was leaked to the public while it was still confidential before the JNE Commission and before the nomination of Senator Poochigian was announced. Governor Schwarzenegger later nominated Poochigian to the 5th District Court of Appeal in Fresno on Aug. 20. The Commission on Judicial Appointments, which acts on appellate court nominees, will consider the appointment Sept. 24, 2009.
