| “ | I don't consider myself a conservative judge because I don't believe in judicial activism. My job is to apply the law, not make it. Which is why I rely on precedent and a neutral reading of the facts. I don't allow empathy to distort my judgment. And I have no use for clerks who do. | ” |

The Fosters[]
Whilst talking about her future and possible job perspectives, Callie mentions that she has an offer with Judge Wilson in LA and one with Judge Engleman in San Francisco. She was leaning towards Engleman, due to her open-minded and liberal policies, as opposed to Judge Wilson's conservative views.
Callie mentions him to Jamie Hunter, who tries to encourage her to take the offer with Judge Wilson over the liberal judge.
Jamie attempted to convince Callie to move to LA instead of San Francisco and to take the more challenging route instead of playing it safe by going with a liberal judge. At dinner back at the house, Callie announced that she accepted the job offer with Judge Wilson in LA.
