NEW ORLEANS —Bernette Johnson has been sworn in as the first African-American chief justice of the Louisiana Supreme Court, less than four months after her colleagues resolved a dispute over whether she was entitled to the position.
Johnson took her oath of office during a brief ceremony Friday, a day after her predecessor, Catherine “Kitty” Kimball, formally retired. A public ceremony marking her investiture is scheduled for Feb. 28.
