The Oregon Journalism Project has learned that an Oregon Court of Appeals judge who sided with PacifiCorp in a case brought by thousands of rural Oregonians caught in the 2020 Labor Day wildfires represented the utility giant for years before she left private legal practice. kAmyF586 p??2 y@J46 =65 2 E9C66\;F586 A2?6= E92E E9C6H @FE 2 9F86 G6C5:4E 282:?DE !24:7:r@CA @? pAC:= g] $96 HC@E6 E96 bc\A286 564:D:@?
