Read the excerpt from "A Latina Judge's Voice" by Hon. The thetorical technique most used in this excerpt is Sonia Sotomayor. Let us not forget that between the appointments of Justice Sandra Day O'Connor in 1981 and Justice Ginsburg in 1992, eleven years passed. Similarly. between Justice Kaye's initial appaintment as an Associate Judge to the New York Court of Appeals in 1983, and Justice Clparick's appointment in 1993, ten years elapsed. Almost nine years later, we are waiting for a third appointment of a woman to both the Supreme Court and the New York Court of Appeals and of a second minority.male or female, preferably Hispanic, to the Supreme Court. In 1992 when I joined the bench, there were still two out of 13 circuit courts and about 53 ou of 92 district courts in which no women sat. At the beginning of September of 2001, there are women sitting in all 13 circuit courts.The First. Fifth, Eighth and Federal Circuits each have only parallelism. overstatement. ethos. shift.

The rhetorical technique most used in this excerpt is "ethos." Ethos is an appeal to credibility or character. In this excerpt, Sonia Sotomayor uses her position and knowledge as a judge to provide credible information about the history of female appointments to high courts. By referencing specific justices and historical timelines, she establishes her authority on the subject and builds trust with the audience regarding her perspective on the representation of women and minorities in the judiciary.
