This Judge does not know real estate law.

This Judge does not know real estate law. She overruled a demurrer to a real estate commission complaint without the RPA. How could any commission agreement be valid without the RPA? She also advised PLA of arbitration, after PLA litigated deeply. Her judicial bias was obvious. She does not even know that the "bad guys" could sue first due to her experiences.

I was a witness to a case that was heard later on in the day.

I was a witness to a case that was heard later on in the day. I got to watch how cases were handled and judged for Protection Orders by Margaret L Oldendorf. Margaret was a fill-in judge for that day since the one that normally handles PO's was off. Margaret was the scariest thing I have ever experienced in my life and I wasn't even on trial. She should not be allowed to make decisions on people's lives. She showed incredible bias and gave PO's out every single time. There was even a case where it was proven with hard evidence the complainant lied and did a false police report and even testified they experienced no harassment, threats, or physical harm. But Margaret gave out the PO anyway which seems to be because of sexism and the complaintif's job affiliation. [Redacted by Editor] Scary… I was never a sympathizer for people wronged in court, but I see now… I think a lot of innocent people could have been given guilty verdicts. Honestly the Court system should review all of Margaret’s judgements and these people should be given another chance [Redacted].
