</div><div>By Alex Swoyer - The Washington Times - Tuesday, May 21, 2019</div><div>The Senate confirmed another of President Trump’s picks to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday, the sixth seat he’s filled on the famously liberal appeals court.</div><div>
</div><div><b>Daniel Collins cleared the Senate by a party line vote, 53 to 46.</b></div><div><b>
</b></div><div><b>He is filling a seat claimed by California, and both that state’s senators objected, saying Mr. Trump ignored their wishes in nominating Mr. Collins.</b></div><div>
</div><div>“Collins has a history of undermining civil and reproductive rights, even working to restrict access to birth control. California deserves better,” Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California, the top Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, said in a tweet as lawmakers began debating the confirmation.</div><div>
</div><div>Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer, New York Democrat, said <b>Mr. Collins filed a brief in support of Hobby Lobby</b> in its challenge to the contraceptive mandate within the Affordable Care Act and also defended pro-life pregnancy clinics from being forced to disclose abortion service information to patients.</div><div>
</div><div><b>“He’s a longtime donor and member of the Federalist Society,</b> and he’s ensconced himself in one of the most anti-choice organizations in the entire country,” Mr. Schumer said.</div><div>
</div><div><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, though, said the nominee has clerked at the 9th Circuit, the Supreme Court, served in the Justice Department as well as worked in private practice.</span></div><div>
</div><div>He received a well-qualified rating from the American Bar Association.</div><div>
</div><div>“Mr. Collins has developed a reputation for legal excellence,” Mr. McConnell said.</div><div>
</div><div>Democrats on Tuesday tried to connect the vote on Mr. Collins to strict abortion restriction laws passing in GOP-led states.</div><div>
</div><div>Mr. Schumer said Republicans in Washington are distancing themselves from laws such as Alabama, which outlaws abortion except in cases where the life or health of the mother is endangered — yet the judges the GOP is advancing could undercut the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling that established a national right to abortion.</div><div>
</div><div>“They’re fooling people bc at the same time they say they don’t want to eliminate Roe or curtail Roe, they vote for judges who would do just that,” he said.</div><div>

Board of Education ruling was correctly decided, and has filed briefs supporting the restriction of access to contraceptives through health insurance.</span></div><div>===</div><div><a href="https://afj.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Daniel-Collins-Senate-Questionnaire-PUBLIC.pdf">https://afj.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Daniel-Collins-Senate-Questionnaire-PUBLIC.pdf</a></div><div>

defendants-appellees.</div><div style="">....</div><div style="">OPINION
WARDLAW, Circuit Judge:
These cross-appeals arise from the petroleum and oil exploration operations conducted by defendant Occidental Peruana
(“OxyPeru”), an indirect subsidiary of defendant Occidental
Petroleum Corporation (collectively “Occidental”), along the
Rio Corrientes in the northern region of Peru. Plaintiffs, 25
members of the Achuar indigenous group dependent for their
existence upon the rainforest lands and waterways along the
river, and Amazon Watch, a California corporation, sued
Occidental in Los Angeles County Superior Court for environmental contamination and release of hazardous waste.
Although Occidental’s headquarters is located in Los Angeles
County, Occidental removed the suit to federal district court
where it successfully moved for dismissal on the ground that
Peru is a more convenient forum. Plaintiffs timely appeal the
dismissal of their suit. Occidental cross-appeals from the district court’s determination that its Rule 12 motion to dismiss
Amazon Watch for lack of standing is moot.
Because Occidental failed to meet its burden of demonstrating that Peru is a more convenient forum, and the district
court gave insufficient weight to the strong presumption in
favor of a domestic plaintiff’s choice of forum, the district
court abused its discretion by dismissing the lawsuit without
imposing mitigating conditions for the dismissal.</div><div style=""> I. FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
We accept as true the facts alleged in the Achuar Plaintiffs’
and Amazon Watch’s (“Plaintiffs”) First Amended Complaint
7126 CARIJANO v. OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM
(“FAC”). See Vivendi SA v. T-Mobile USA, Inc., 586 F.3d
689, 691 n.3 (9th Cir. 2009); Aguas Lenders Recovery Group
v. Suez, S.A., 585 F.3d 696, 697 (2d Cir. 2009) (<b>accepting the
facts alleged in the complaint as true</b> where the case was dismissed on forum non conveniens grounds without a factual
hearing).
Occidental is among the largest oil and gas companies in
the United States. Its Peruvian operations began in the early
1970s with the development of a pair of lots near the Ecuadorean border known as “Block 1-AB.” Its subsidiary,
OxyPeru, built Block 1-AB into a thriving extraction, processing, and distribution site, providing 26 percent of Peru’s total
historical oil production from 1972 to 2000, at which point
Occidental sold its stake in Block 1-AB to the Argentine oil
company Pluspetrol. </div><div style="">
</div><div style="">The Peruvian government granted Occidental its first concession in the region in 1971; oil was found
the next year. The company built dozens of wells, a 530-
kilometer network of pipelines, refineries, and separation batteries for processing crude oil, as well as roads, heliports and
camps to support the operation at Block 1-AB.
The Achuar are indigenous people who have long resided
along the rivers of the northern Peruvian rainforest. Block 1-
AB encompasses significant portions of the Corrientes and
Macusari rivers, home to several Achuar communities. The
inhabitants use the rivers and their tributaries for drinking,
fishing, and bathing. The region is remote, with access typically limited to small planes, helicopters, small boats, and
canoes.
The complaint alleges that, during its thirty years in the
Achuar territories,<span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);"> Occidental knowingly utilized out-of-date
methods for separating crude oil that contravened United
States and Peruvian law, resulting in the discharge of millions
of gallons of toxic oil byproducts into the area’s waterways.
Achuar children and adults came into frequent contact with
the contaminants by using polluted rivers and tributaries ...</span></div><div style="">==</div><div style="">7. Litigation: Describe the ten (10) most significant litigated matters which you personally

(1) Galvis Mujica v. Occidental Petroleum Corp., 771F.3d580 (9th Cir. 2014)
Judges: Circuit Judges Bybee and Ikuta and District Judge Zilly (by designation)
In this long-running case brought under the Alien Tort Statute, 28 lJ.S.C. § 1350
("ATS") and California common law, the plaintiffs were three former Colombian
citizens who sought to hold Occidental Petroleum Corporation and AirScan, Inc.
liable for an allegedly unlawful bombing conducted by the Colombian military in
Colombia in 1998. After briefing on the motion to dismiss was completed, the
29
United States Depaitment of State filed a Statement oflnterest expressing the
view that continued adjudication of the suit in the U.S. would have an adverse
impact on U.S. foreign policy. Relying on this statement, the district court (Rea,
J.) ultimately dismissed the action under the political question doctrine and, in
part, on additional grounds as well. I had significant responsibility for writing
and arguing, in the district comt, certain po1tions of the motions to dismiss that
were granted by the district court. See Galvis Mujica v. Occidental Petroleum
Corp., 381 F. Supp. 2d 1164 (C.D. Cal. 2005).
I likewise had significant responsibility for writing Occidental's briefs on appeal
and cross-appeal in the 9th Circuit. (Occidental filed a cross-appeal to the extent
that the district court stated that it would not dismiss the suit on several additional
grounds that might have changed the nature of the judgment, e.g.,forum non
conveniens.) The Ninth Circuit initially remanded the case for consideration of an
intervening en bane decision concerning the potential applicability of prudential
exhaustion. Galvis Mujica v. Occidental Petroleum Corp., 564 F.3d 1190 (9th
Cir. 2009). The district court (Wu, J.) concluded that prudential exhaustion was
inapplicable, see Galvis Mujica v. Occidental Petroleum C017J., 2010 WL
11586833 (C.D. Cal. 2010), and the paities again appealed and cross-appealed. I
argued the second appeal on behalf of Occidental. The Ninth Circuit affirmed the
dismissal. See Galvis Mujica v. AirScan Inc., 771 F.3d 580 (9th Cir. 2014). The
panel majority upheld the dismissal of the A TS claims on the ground that they
were impermissibly extraterritorial, and it upheld the dismissal of the state law
claims under the doctrine of international comity. Judge Zilly would have upheld
the dismissal of the state law claims on other grounds, and he would have
reversed the dismissal of the A TS claims and remanded to permit the plaintiffs to
replead those claims.
The Supreme Court denied the plaintiffs' petition for certiorari. See Galvis
Mujica v. Occidental Petroleum Corp., 136 S. Ct. 690 (2015).

Judges: Circuit Judges Thomas and Clifton and District Judge Pro
(by designation)

The plaintiffs, a Native Alaskan Village and an Alaskan city, alleged that the
defendants (various oil, utility, and coal companies) were liable for contributing
to global warming, which placed the city in peril of being eroded away. They
asserted claims under federal common law and sought as much as $400 million in
damages to relocate the city. My firm worked with multiple firms to file a joint
motion to dismiss in the district court on behalf of the oil company defendants.
The district court (Armstrong, J.) dismissed the suit on the grounds that the claims
raised nonjusticiable political questions and that the plaintiffs lacked Article III
standing. Native Village of Kivalina v. ExxonMobil Corp., 663 F. Supp. 2d 863
(N.D. Cal. 2009). </div><div style="">
</div><div style="">The plaintiffs appealed. In their briefs on appeal, the
defendants argued that the district court correctly dismissed the case on political
question and standing grounds, and they also argued that, in light of an
intervening U.S. Supreme Court decision, the plaintiffs' federal common law
claims were displaced by the Clean Air Act. I argued the case in the Ninth Circuit
on behalf of the defendants-appellees. The Ninth Circuit unanimously affirmed
the dismissal on displacement grounds. Native Village of Kivalina v. ExxonMobil
Corp., 696 F.3d 849 (9th Cir. 2012).</div><div style="">
</div><div style=""> The concurring judge (Judge Pro) would
also have affirmed on standing grounds.

</div><div>Daniel Collins has been confirmed by the U.S. Senate to the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.</div><div>
</div><div>The Senate confirmed Los Angeles attorney Daniel Collins to the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday over the opposition of his home-state senators and other Democrats, giving President Trump his sixth appointee to the San Francisco-based court that he regularly denounces.</div><div>
</div><div><b>The vote was 53-46, along party lines, to confirm Collins to a seat </b>that became vacant in December 2015, when liberal Judge Harry Pregerson took senior status — semi-retirement — two years before his death.<span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);"> Former President Barack Obama nominated U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh of San Jose to succeed Pregerson, but <b>Senate Republicans refused to hold a confirmation vote.</b></span></div><div>
</div><div>Collins, a Stanford Law School graduate, is a former federal prosecutor and Justice Department lawyer in the George W. Bush administration with a solidly conservative record. <b>He was a law clerk for the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, and later filed arguments with the court successfully arguing that certain <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">corporations were entitled to exercise their religious beliefs by denying contraceptive coverage to female employees</span></b><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">.</span></div><div>
</div><div>Collins also represented <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">Philip Morris Co. in an unsuccessful challenge to a San Francisco ordinance barring tobacco sales in drugstores. Another client, San Jose flight-planning company Jeppesen Dataplan, was accused in a lawsuit of helping the <b>CIA transport prisoners to overseas prisons for interrogation and torture during the Bush administration. </b>Federal courts dismissed the suit on the grounds it risked exposure of state secrets.</span></div></div><div style="">

Judges: Presiding Justice Klein and Justices Croskey and Kitching
This case involved a challenge, on state constitutional grounds, to the Gloria
Romero Educational Reform Act of2006 (the "Romero Act"). The Act altered
the governance structure of the Los Angeles Unified School District ("LAUSD")
by increasing the authority of the LAUSD Superintendent; by providing a role for
a "Council of Mayors" (which included, inter alia, the Mayor of Los Angeles and
the mayors of other cities served by LAU SD) in the selection and removal of the
Superintendent; and by transferring authority over certain low-performing school
to a "Mayor's Partnership" directed by the Mayor of Los Angeles. My firm
represented a group of parents who intervened as defendants in the matter and
who joined the City of Los Angeles and the State of California in defending the
constitutionality of the Romero Act. The trial court invalidated the Act. The
defendants and intervenors appealed, and the City and the intervenors filed joint
briefs in the Court of Appeal. (The State filed separate briefs.) The Court of
Appeal affirmed, holding that the provisions of the Act concerning the Council of
Mayors and the Mayor's Partnership violated provisions of the California
Constitution that allowed for elected school boards to govern school districts and
that forbade the Legislature from transferring any part of the public school system
to the control of an authority outside the public school system. See Mendoza v.
State ofCal!fornia, 149 Cal. App. 4th 1034 (2007). 1 was part of the team that
prepared the appellate briefs in this case, and 1 was the lead ==</span></div></div></span></div></div>
