Linda Colfax

Horrible manners for Judicial Officer.. [Redacted by Ed.]. Extremely disrespectful to attorneys and In Pro Per Litigants. If attorney asks her for basis for her decision you can hear from this judge "If you don't like it appeal it!" Extremely moody and rude to her supporting staff.. Her own bailiff was not able to tolerate her rudeness and ran away. Extremely biased and Makes decisions based on her mood instead of applying law to the set of facts. HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE - [Redacted by Ed.].

The two words that best describe Judge Colfax: angry and unprofessional. She is seemingly angry toward the world and is going to take it out on the poor people who have the misfortune to come before her (level of preparedness does not matter) - unless you are a criminal - in that case she's going to give a free pass. She particularly seems to despise women - especially those who are successful. It's almost as if she views everyone as her competition and seeks to hobble them but criminals can't compete with her so she doesn't need to vent her anger and unhappiness on them. I see someone has pegged her as a narcissist. Sadly that resonates - I would not be surprised if she were clinically diagnosed as a narcissist.

Judge Colfax is one of the best judges over at the Hall of Justice. She has a no-nonsense, get down to business style that is not appreciated by unprepared litigators, or witnesses and litigants who spout BS in her court room. She is one of the few judges who has the courage to follow the law, regardless of which side it helps. She takes the time to read the case law you cite, etc. I feel fortunate when I get sent to her court room.
