Alumni Welcome Superior Court Judge (Ret.) Bernard E. Revak

Superior Court Judge (Ret.) Bernard E. Revak will be speaking at our July luncheon.

Judge Revak (Delta Xi ’61) was appointed to the Superior Court by Governor Deukmejian in 1987. Prior to his judicial appointment, he served as a Deputy District Attorney in San Diego from January 1965 until May 1985. During this time he tried numerous homicide cases and in 1983 was named Prosecutor of the Year by the California District Attorney's Association. In May 1985 he joined the United States Attorney's Office in San Diego where he was assigned to the Organized Crime Narcotics Task Force.

While a Deputy D.A., Judge Revak successfully prosecuted Daniel Hyde in 1983 for a murder in which the victim’s body was never recovered. This was one of the first prosecutions in San Diego of a murder case in which no body was found.

In 1992, Judge Revak presided over the murder case of Virginia and Billy Joe McGinnis who were accused of pushing a young woman from a cliff in Monterey, California after having taken out a life insurance policy on her in Chula Vista. Billy Joe McGinnis died in jail prior to trial.

He attended San Diego State on a basketball scholarship, lettering there for three years. After receiving his B.A. degree in 1961, he went on to earn his law degree in 1964 from Hastings Law School in San Francisco. Since 1991, Judge Revak has been an Adjunct Professor at California Western School of Law. Judge Revak served on the Board of Directors of the San Diego State Alumni Association.
