Judge Conlon is a very passionate, and thoughtful, Judge.

4.0

Judge Conlon is a very passionate, and thoughtful, Judge. She has an excellent academic pedigree so she brings her intellectual abilities to her judging, hence understands the complex legalities fully, but also employs sensitivity and compassion to case resolution. It is commented below she can be a little mercurial with the parties and counsels, perhaps that can be true sometimes. Overall, I would unreservedly approve / recommend of her abilities as a Judge.

She butters up the ones in power, but has bias against the attorneys from small firm.

She butters up the ones in power, but has bias against the attorneys from small firm. She doesn't follow the law and ignore the fact. She is unfit for judge.

This judge either doesn't know the law or doesn't care about the law; she rules by her mood, and even uses her courtroom for politics.

Probably the worst judge in chancery that we have encountered.

Probably the worst judge in chancery that we have encountered. Doesn’t know the law. Doesn’t understand the facts. And doesn’t read any submissions. I’ll take an SOJ anytime we get assigned her again.

I once believed this Judge was fair, but have witnessed a trend wherein she takes out anger/irritation upon all parties regardless of merit and has little to no recollection of an attorney's prior bad acts (basically lashes out at whoever is speaking). She also excuses some parties (Govt.) following dismissal but requires the presence of others (Private) following dismissal, without specifying reason. Overall, scattered, moody and and unpredictable. Sad, given her prior high marks for disposition.
