Walter Croskey
Walter Croskey is a nonpartisan judge who was appointed by Deukmejian in 1987. He was appointed to the Los Angeles Superior Court by Deukmejian in 1985.
In 2008 Croskey, as part of a child abuse case, ruled that parents do not have the right to home school their children and that parents wishing to homeschool their children must have a teaching credential. This ruling was later reevaluated by the 2nd Court of Appeals (including Croskey) and overridden as touching this issue. [1] [2]
In 2009 Croskey ruled that the Police cannot use known illegal immigration status as a justification for launching a police investigation.[3]
