Gov. Schwarzenegger signed the 2010 State Bar fee bill.

PRLog (Press Release) - Jan. 29, 2010 - “We are grateful to the governor for signing the State Bar 2010 fee bill. He has helped us to focus on issues and matters that are important to the State Bar,” said State Bar President Howard Miller. “We also want to thank the legislative leadership that has been so supportive and forthcoming. This entire period has strengthened the State Bar and given us important missions and goals that we now can actively achieve.”

Schwarzenegger vetoed the fee bill in October, citing as one reason a leak that one of his judicial nominees, former State Sen. Chuck Poochigian, was rated “not qualified” by the Committee on Judicial Nominees Evaluation (JNE). (Poochigan was later confirmed as an appellate court judge.) Miller created a task force to investigate the leak. The task force, led by William Gailey, a Schwarzenegger appointee to the State Bar board and head of a private investigation firm, issued a report last month saying that despite an extensive investigation, it could not identify who leaked the information.  William “Bill” Gailey is a licensed Private Investigator, the Founder and Chairman of Gailey Associates, Inc. Gailey Associates, Inc. is a professional investigations firm with offices in Orange County and Los Angeles, California.
