In 1969 he was appointed to the Washington State Court of Appeals
(Division I) and served until 1975, when he became a justice of the
Washington State Supreme Court. He retired in 1980.
The Washington Law Review dedicated an issue to Justice Horowitz in March
1981. See tributes by Judge Betty B. Fletcher (56 Wash. L. Rev. 163),
Justice James M. Dolliver (56 Wash. L. Rev. 167), and Professor Richard
Cosway (56 Wash. L. Rev. 171).
The Saul and Dayee G. Haas
Foundation donated a fund to the Law Library in his memory, to be used
for books in the area of jurisprudence. The fund has been depleted and is no
longer active.
