To correct typos and expand slightly my initial comments about Judge Jack should read as follows: Judge Janis Jack graduated from a Baltimore nursing school and then moved to Texas to become a divorce attorney. Despite the enormous pool of much better the qualified candidates (probably most of the legal profession), Bill Clinton appoints her to the federal bench. The only logical explanation is that the Clintons were so worried that their planned divorce might expose them to legal litigation, and she said that it would. Judge Jack is the judge who sentenced by last living nephew Brian McCuiston to 25 years in federal prison for a non-violent drug offense allegedly committed at age 17. His oldest brother Kevin was murdered, and his other brother Erik died mysteriously (murdered) in a Texas police station. Having already served 19 years in prison, Brian's compassionate release was recommended, but Judge Jack refused. In forthcoming litigation, Bill and Hillary Clinton and Judge Jack will be forced to testify and should all be prepared to serve out the remainder of Brian's sentence. Also, President Biden will be asked to tell us why Hunter remains free after earning $1M/yr from Ukrainian interests while you were carrying out a foreign policy highly favorable to the Ukraine and putting many US soldiers lives in jeopardy. Hunter also needs to take Biain's place in jail, and your own resignation is expected. Perhaps a President Trump will pardon all of you. After all, he was a Democrat most of his life and only entered politics to get things done. Anyone interested in helping Brian McCuiston and so many others like him may send their letters, donations and other expressions of support to Final Platform LLC, 110 N IH 35 STE 315 #404, Round Rock, TX 78681. Brian is a full partner in Final Platform LLC, and many others like him will soon become one. Phil Smith International Monetary Fund, Retired

A poor example of a jurist, lawyer, and judge.

A poor example of a jurist, lawyer, and judge. A waste of an judicial appointment appointment by the executive branch. Those that know her before her appointment know she was not knowledgeable of the law she practiced; however her family ties to old colonial money granted her access to her political appointment. Her stance on drugs (because of her daughter's familiar acquaintance to abuse) distorted her bias in favor of leniency for drug offenders despite violence or or sex offenses in relation while in commission of the offenses. But a weapons charge is adjudicated at fantastic potentials fantasized. Civil cases were heard in nearly flawless fashion. Civil and theoretical cases here heard in stellar fashion. Her metabolic comorbidities may have a significant issue in her judgment because her temper seemed to rise as her sense of hunger did (often vocalize during hearings). I do however wish I could get away with her sanction deviance.... I would rule the world.

I learned only recently of a case where Judge Jack denied the compassionate release of someone who had already served 19 years of the 25 year sentence she had given him for a non-violent drug offence he allegedly committed while still a juvenile--even though his only remaining brother had died recently circumstances while in police custody in Texas? As details of this and other Judge Janis Jack cases become more widely known, every minute she remains on the bench poses a serious risk to herself and others.

Given the testimony against her by her own 68 year old sister, the comments of others, and the exclusion of very positive ratings so obviously entered on her behalf, Judge Jack must be disbarred immediately and held in protective custody while her psychiatric evaluation gets underway. Furthermore, knowing her aberrant behavior and seemingly 100% disposition to favor the prosecution in criminal cases, the conduct of federal prosecutors also must be closely examined.

This is my description of Jacks- careless,belittling,biased,gruff,incompetent, I can go on and on. What this person has done to my husband and my family will Never be forgiven. I may not be the smartest person in the world but I know a demoniac person when I see one especially in her court room. How she is even still a "judge" is astonishing to me since she does nothing but sit on her perch and look at a computer screen more than do anything else. United States Judge more like The United States Joke! I don't know whats happened in her life to make her so cruel to everyone else but I really hope she gets some psychological help and do everyone a favor a permintly retire. Have fun freezing your ass off in Maine.

Judge Jacks....

Judge Jacks.... where do I begin? She is judge that should of never been appointed. When Bill Clinton appointed her, it was not his best day! She is mean, nasty and vindictive. She spends more time looking at the computer screen on her desk, than actually paying attention to what is going on in her courtroom. Just because you are a lawyer and in her case a divorce lawyer, doesn't mean you make a good judge. She also seems to think her intelligence is above most people, but she attended schools Texas instead of the best Ivy League schools or Cornell for the highly intelligent. Get over yourself Jacks! You are not any better than the rest of us. You are the worst Judge and YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE for ruining innocent peoples lives!!! I do believe in "karma" that says what goes around comes around. When you are called away from this world, I don't think St. Peter will be able to find his keys to open the Pearly Gates to let you in.

Yes your Honor Judge Graham you need to be aware of the truth of the matter in Staar Dominguez case, because they have not been truthful and by law have lied to your Honor!Mrs Moe happened to be at staars house to witness a call that CPS worker Becky Tejerina had with staar and Mrs Moe knows that Becky was hateful telling staar all kinds of stuff;. I have been at all staars courts not once have you even let or ask staar if she has or had anything to say! She's human too and she has documents showing where Becky was closing her case then later comes and takes the kids if u was to only ask if there was witnesses at the time she told staar it was over then these kids wouldn't be where they are your Honor Staar Dominguez was getting off the drug at the time which some of us here in dalhart TX thought that was great! But one thing and this is true judge staar is a good mother she's never been abusive towards her kids they were always feed & showered and clean environment always;! Your Honor I just ask that the whole truth be brought to Justice and with staar doing everything they asked of her and still want to make her look bad Your Honor Please in God's Name Staar deserves her kids back because all this was wrong doing! I know better than to not Lie in Court; I wouldn't Lie to Your Honor please believe that staar Dominguez is a great,mother!! Thank you Judge Graham
