Caroline Olivera

I don't know how this judge became said judge. Seems to favor counsel and defense greatly, throws out evidence- and forget winning if you're pro-se. You could hand her your severed arm that your abuser caused and she'd still say they did it out of love. I don't think she wouldn't be a good judge in general, but family law, especially handling DV is not where she should be. Favoring abusers seems to be a theme and not everyone can afford an attorney and do their best. Siding with abusers when there's proof in front of her and dismissing it should be enough to get someone off the bench when it becomes a pattern.

Favors pro se litigants and openly biased. Kicks can down the road and allows perpetrators of domestic violence to continue abusing their victims through the court system. Allows defendants to throw things in court and make threats and does not hold them in contempt. Does not follow through with threats made in court to give out sanctions. Allows the courtroom to become a circus and overtly demonstrates bias

This woman needs to be off the court. she;s useless

Extremely biased against pro se litigants. Overtly favors counsel. Questionable legal reasoning or knowledge of family court rules/laws, child support guidelines, etc. Visibly uncomfortable with basic math/calculations. Little understanding of dv and the various forms of abuse - really needs to educate herself and read the research.

I witnessed judge Olivera silence a pro se litigant by stopping her in mid-sentence, not allowing the pro se litigant to be heard - the pro se was not allowed on the record to tell her story of uncomplimentary statements regarding abuse over FaceTime with her son. she would not let the pro se litigant continue to put on the record the statement - denying her fair and due process. extreme bias exhibited. a pro se litigant should be afforded the right to be heard, her demeanor was completely different with opposing counsel, showing extreme favoritism. I would hope that Judge Oliveira would take note of this and allow a person who is representing themselves the opportunity to be heard.
