&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;The U.S. military government kept the Mexican local offices, but many officials were appointed rather than elected. Some elements of the U.S. judicial system were introduced:&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;quot;In Monterey, Walter Colton was elected Alcalde on September 15, 1846. He was designated as the Judge of the First Instance at the capital of California, and, therefore, &lt;br /&gt;
 he was the appellate court for decisions made by the Alcalde of Santa Cruz. Colton is credited with the introduction of the jury system, used extensively by&lt;br /&gt;
 Santa Cruz alcaldes. Colton first used a jury in September 1846.&amp;quot; ([https://history.santacruzpl.org/omeka/items/show/134109#?c=0&amp;amp;m=0&amp;amp;s=0&amp;amp;cv=0 Stanley D. Stevens, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;The Alcaldes of Branciforte-Santa Cruz (1802-1850)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, SCPL])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;quot;The Santa Cruz County Court of Sessions first met on April 26, 1850, as the governing judicial and administrative authority. The judicial authority shifted to County Judges and Justices of the Peace.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
