Two Los Angeles court commissioners and a supervising California deputy attorney general were appointed Wednesday as Los Angeles Superior Court judges by Gov. Jerry Brown.

John A. Slawson, 64, of Rolling Hills Estates, has been a Los Angeles Superior Court commissioner since 1993 and has served as adjunct faculty at El Camino College in Torrance since 1994. He was the Redondo Beach city prosecutor from 1978 to 1993 and worked as an attorney in private practice.

Slawson fills a vacancy created by Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Louise M. Meisinger’s retirement.

Anthony A. Trendacosta, 64, of Los Angeles, has been a Los Angeles Superior Court commissioner since 2006 and was a court referee from 1998 to 2006. His previous positions included general counsel at the Santa Monica Rent Control Board from 1989 to 1998, supervising attorney at the Los Angeles Office of County Counsel from 1987 to 1989 and as a partner at Rose, Klein and Marias from 1983 to 1986.

Trendacosta fills a vacancy created by the retirement of Judge Janice C. Croft.

Keith H. Borjon, 55, of Whittier, has been a supervising deputy attorney general for the California Department of Justice’s Office of the Attorney General since 1990, where he has worked since 1985. He was an attorney and clerk at Westside Legal Services from 1984 to 1985.
