Goodwin Hon Liu (劉弘威,born 1970) was Dean of the Berkeley Law School.
Liu is an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of California, appointed by Governor Jerry Brown, after his nomination to a federal court was blocked by Senate Republican filibuster.
Although often heard with sharp opinions on controversial issues, Liu gained friendship and professional respect from many of the persons and institutions he criticized. His Berkeley colleague John Yoo and Director of the conservative Goldwater Institute, along many other conservative individuals and organizations, supported his nomination to the Ninth Circuit.
