I compliment you upon the Recorder article concerning Judicial Council secrecy ("Behind Closed Doors," Feb. 25).

I made a mistake 15 years ago in excluding the judiciary from my legislative overhaul of the Brown Act and its comparable state open meeting statutes. The attitude of Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye, Fourth District Justice Doug Miller and others infuriates me. How can they be expected to rule objectively on open meeting disputes?
