Supreme Court Favours Taylor in San Francisco Mayoral Case
The California Supreme Court, sitting en banc, ruled in favor of Dr. Edwards Taylor for mayor of San Francisco, in the McKannay v. Morton case. The decision, written by Chief Justice Beatty, upholds Taylor as de facto mayor while disfavoring Schmitz’s appointees and notes Schmitz’s felony extortion conviction clears the path for Taylor’s incumbency. The ruling preserves Taylor’s authority and discourages further attempts by Schmitz’s allies to claim the office.
