Althea M. Handy

Judge Handy is unprofessional and biased. She reacts based on emotion and her own opinion, giving a harsh sentence because she disagreed with the jury's verdict. From her demeanor and her words, she clearly had already decided the case regardless of the outcome of the jury. Her understanding and judgement of situations involving interpersonal conflict and IPV is disturbing. She has no place in the courtroom, making decisions that impact people's lives forever.

`Altea M. Handy has no reason to be on the bench. She does not have the temperament needed to be an unbiased judge. She is rude, yells at litigants and lawyers and does not care to understand anyone’s point of view but hers. She is clearly not suitable to be a judge. No one should be voting for her to be reelected. She’s clearly unhinged and needs a psychological evaluation. It’s time she booted off the bench.

This judge Handy was EXTREMELY bias! She was totally for the plaintiff. She did not listen to the defendant, told him to be quite and did not want to see any evidence he produced. She made her decision totally by what the plaintiff said. She also began speaking in Spanish to the plaintiff so that what was said wasn't understand by the defendant. There was no need for Spanish because the plaintiff is fluent in English. If there were zeros on this rating scale, that's what the judge would have gotten. The defendant was stopped from speaking and told that he was disrespectful. This woman should NOT be a judge!!!! It was clearly a personal attack and my rights were violated.
