Appellate judges in town this week

The Cal Supremes are in LA this week (they hear cases in LA in April, June and December), and no doubt are making the rounds at various bar events (e.g., the LACBA Appellate Courts Section lunch tomorrow).
Also in town hearing arguments in Pasadena this week are the following local and out-of-town judges: Tashima, Fernandez, Silverman, Graber, Farris, Bea, M.Smith, Sentelle (D.C. Cir.), Tymkovich (10th Cir.), Ezra (W.D. Tex. nee D. Hawaii), Settle (W.D. Wash.), Rogers (N.D. Cal.), Mendoza (E.D. Wash.), and Dorsey (D. Nev.).
