Two San Francisco Superior Court judges have been subpoenaed to testify against a lawyer who faces State Bar sanctions for allegedly pulling a fast one on the trial court to get a disputed settlement approved. The charges stem from Brett Pedersen's handling of a suit over a residential property sale in San Francisco. Two years ago, according to papers filed by the State Bar, Pedersen twice tried to get court approval for a $40,000 settlement even though the opposing side had withdrawn from the agreement.
