Comment CA44501 is written by someone who lost their case and wants to play the race card, complete garbage. She's a good judge, smart, and practices civility. I have no problem having cases in her courtroom, and don't 170.6 her.

Teacher discipline cases do not get a fair hearing in this department. In most recent case, 2 of 3 parties NEVER appeared and the only active party was in default until 13 days before hearing -- but totally ignored fact she had no jurisdiction to hear the case. Multiple Requests to enter default were rejected out of hand. No patience for pro per client but plenty for the school district with at least 3 lawyers on every case. Ignores argument, compliance with deadlines (if school district) strictly applies deadlines to teachers. In current case she had already adopted the tentative filed at 9:29 as the final at 9:30 but hearing was not held until 10:45. If that wasn't enough, she changed the final order without notice and directed her clerk to serve only the pro per but not her lawyer. Tentative was drafted in support of school district before any pleadings filed. Does not require school districts to comply with rules but strictly enforces them, with glaring looks and condecending tone, if pro per. I am unaware of any teacher dismissal case that got a fair hearing before her. She is an embarrassment to the legal profession. I am filing a complaint with the CJP in addition to this. (Admitted to bar in 1980, beat Johnny Cochran, not a snowflake, first complaint, ever.)

[redacted by Ed.] She does not have capacity to work as judge. She did not get elected in 2022 . Newscam appointed her without election. On 12/6/22 [redacted by Ed.] She treated female physician of color ( plaintiff) as second class citizen and ruled in favor of white blond defendant despite many gross evidence and her own rulings in favor of plaintiff few months back . [redacted by Ed.] She destroyed Whistleblower physician’s live who was victim of sexual harassment and capricious and arbitrarily decisions by bribed traitors

Pro Per Writ Petition, Granted. She was honest fair and helpful throughout the entire process.
