In 1972, she became a Wayne County Circuit Court judge and in 1976, Riley became the first woman to serve on the Michigan Court of Appeals. Following her time on the Court of Appeals, Riley was appointed to the Michigan Supreme Court by Governor Milliken in 1982—causing bipartisan controversy at the time. Nevertheless, after being voted out of the Michigan Supreme Court in 1983, Riley was voted back in to the court in 1984, serving as chief justice from 1987 to 1991. She retired in 1997. Riley was the first Hispanic woman to be elected to a state Supreme Court in any of the 50 states and, in 2000, was presented the Distinguished Public Servant Award by the State Bar of Michigan.<o:p></o:p></p><p style='line-height:13.5pt'><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div></div><p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><img border=0 width=402 height=41 id="_x0000_i1026" src="cid:image016.jpg@01D40F99.593F4A80" alt="cid:image001.jpg@01CF8A43.BF828E40"><o:p></o:p></span></p><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><hr size=2 width="100%" align=center></span></div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#984807'>The Historical Society of Michigan is our state’s oldest cultural organization, founded in 1828 by territorial governor Lewis Cass and explorer Henry Schoolcraft.
