Rachel Holt

[Redacted by Ed.] Repeatedly her rulings have put too many children in harm's way, and punished protective mothers. Like her former law partner, Vicki Yeley, she publicly displays a very twisted mind that can be documented in her rulings.

[Redacted by Ed.] She not only blatantly disregards all laws that are meant to protect women and child victims of domestic violence, she terrorizes them in her courtroom. Her judicial misconduct is staggering. She has caused immeasurable harm to women, children, and their extended families. [Redacted by Ed.]

This judge punts more cases than she solves. This comes from not only my experience with her, but watching how she views the other cases on the docket when I have to see her. I'm not sure if it is because she is new to her position, but she hardly reviews evidence, relies too heavily on mediators to make her judgements for her. She would rather push a case out 2 months and keep children in a terrible situation than take the energy to resolve it, even when there is substantial evidence of substance abuse. If you see her for family court, request a different judge. This one would rather sit on her hands than get them dirty.
