Malcolm H. Mackey

Worst "judge" ever! I am disappointed to see this racist is still a California judge: if you are wealthy or represented by a wealthy firm in his courtroom, I predict that you will win. I urge that this incompetent judge, who was terrible and unfamiliar with matters before him many years ago, before he aged more, be carefully investigated, and his relatives too, to see if any is getting some billionaire to pay tuition, free cars, free planes, etc. If so, I hope that the law prosecutes.

He dismisses cases right before they go to trial if it requires too much mental dexterity and he doesn’t want to deal with it. He also appears to favor the defendant if it’s the state of CA as a state employee himself

Judge Mackey is 93 and has abandoned reading the pleadings. He relies entirely on this law clerk and his clerk gets it wrong a lot. Oral argument is pointless because Judge Mackey has no idea why you are standing before him or the issue you are discussing. Because he reads nothing, he is incapable for doing anything other than endorsing his clerk's written tentative ruling. I have heard the same complaints about his going back ten years. It's quite sad. Presumably, there was a time when he actually did the work of a judge.

I tried my case of defamation of Character Case with this senile disqualified Judge M. Mackey and he ignored all the preponderance of the evidence submitted by the Plaintiff and he failed to schedule Trial Court Hearings to win my case and intead he honored the unacceptable crooked Defendant's demurrer request. This case currently has been filed with the Court of Appeal to obtain justice.

Geriatric. He is literally 94 years old. This is why CA needs age limit for judges, which the majority of states have. Physically feeble, mentally incompetent. Total nightmare.

Crumudgeon. Period.

Monumentally horrible. I had already won multiple cases against opposing party who filed this frivolous case in front of Mackey, who was so biased, without even trying to hide it - he literally ruled in their favor on everything, without even reading my motions. I filed 170 challenge for bias, and he actually wrote that he as the right to make continuous erroneous rulings. He called me vexatious (though I have never lost a case) for filing a motion to disqualify him, and I succeeded in disqualifying him. Total nightmare. You should have seen other party's face when I succeeded in disqualifying this loser judge -- that party's gravy train of winning motions came to a screeching halt in front of new judge. Mackey is 93-years-old, cognitively impaired, and has wacky angry emotions indicative of Alzheimers patients (if you have ever been around one).

The Judicial Council needs to take action. This judge does not read papers and goes off the cuff based on wrong facts and law. I see the comments about him being senile and I unfortunately have to agree. When there is no court reporter the clerk tries to cover for the judge. What a travesty of justice.
